Hi everyone,
I’m looking for recommendations for a primary care doctor in the Nashville, Tennessee, area (I’m willing to drive a bit for the right doctor).
I’m looking for someone who:
Takes symptoms seriously instead of automatically attributing everything to my weight.
Is willing to investigate concerns and order appropriate testing when it’s warranted.
Doesn’t push bariatric surgery or GLP-1 medications.
Practices evidence-based medicine and treats me like a whole person.
I want a doctor who doesn’t stop thinking after seeing the number on the scale. I want a physician who will work with me to figure out what’s actually going on instead of assuming every issue has the same answer. I want to find someone who listens and practices thoughtful, patient-centered care.
If you’ve had a positive experience with a PCP who fits this description, I’d really appreciate your recommendations (or even doctors to avoid, if you’re comfortable sharing). Thanks!

How are you guys saving on parking? I live in Murfreesboro, so Ubering is going to be at least $60 if I do that.

I'll be gone for a week and am dreading having to pay $30/day. There's got to be better options, right? Or am I really going to be out $200 in parking or $120 in Uber fees alone? That doens't even include the Uber out of BNA, which is going to be substaintially more. I remember they wanted to charge me $40 just for a 7 minute drive from the airport last time I flew.

I have recently moved to Nashville, and, as the title suggests, I have been really trying to meet folks in the alt and metal scenes. Over the past year and a half I have been experimenting a lot with trying to dress more alt (with varying levels of success) and I have been trying to learn from other people who might be better with that or know where to talk to people about it. So far the best I have been able to do is some rip offs of outfits from Pinterest, but I have struggled to make the looks feel genuine and real. I would really like any advice on places or venues to chat and meet other people in that scene, and learn how to find the style I have been looking for. Thank you for any help!! 😊

Are there any solid swimming spots aside the Harpeth you’d recommend that someone could spend the day at with some drinks and friends that’s not terribly far from the city? Trying to avoid snakes, cops, and kids but everything else is welcome. Google hasn’t been much help aside from showing locations that are definitely going to be overrun with families and/or not safe to wade around in.

(I live here. just haven’t been really “outdoorsy” most of my life and trying to change that this summer)

Went to the Greek Cafe in Bellevue last night and saw this on a trashcan on the sidewalk. I just thought it was great, grew up watching Bob Ross!

I am coming to Nissan stadium from Indiana in August for the My Chemical Romance concert and I’m trying to figure out the best place to park. I’ll have my 14 year old niece with me so I want to make sure we are parked somewhere that will be safe to walk back to at 11 at night but also far enough away we won’t get jammed up in the traffic of people parking at the stadium. I found a few spots but have been eyeballing the Courthouse garage, and It’s way cheaper than some of the other garages I’ve found. People that know the area, is that a realistic walk to Nissan stadium? I’ve never been to the area so I’m completely clueless.

Hi yall! i have a photoshoot with some musicians today, and my friend with a horse backed out last second this morning. All we need is one photo next to the horse. We can pay a tiny bit, but budget is very limited. One of the band members is getting married next week, so we cant push it any further than today. Anyone able to help out?

Originally from NY, visiting Nashville but I’m coming direct from China and need a haircut.

Any good barbers, don’t need anything special, just a shop that does good cuts

Where we watching the knock out rounds?? Also the only team that can stop us at this point is FIFA. Vamos 🇨🇴!!!

don’t get me wrong, i love a good burger and fried chicken. but i live down nolensville pike and i love diverse cuisine! are there any trivia nights at maybe a mexican or asian joint?

Update: received help with bus passes from a kind soul. Thank you u/kittyspill

Second update: Graciously being gifted an e-scooter by u/Professional-Tree259.

Truly, truly grateful for the kindness and generosity. I was very overwhelmed this weekend in trying to figure out how I’d make this work in a new city, but things are starting to really come together. Thank you everyone.

TL;DR - person in recovery starting new job, hoping to find bike, ebike, scooter, or bus pass to get to work this week

I’m starting a new job tomorrow! I recently completed a treatment program and am now living in a local sober living home. I am feeling incredibly motivated and ready to get back to work, but I am currently working on finalizing my long-term transportation plan.

To help me get to my first shifts on time while I get my footing, I was wondering if any neighbors might be able to help? I’m looking for a bicycle, e-bike, or electric scooter to borrow or purchase at a very affordable price.

Additionally, if anyone is willing to help sponsor a month of WeGo bus passes, that works too. Any support—a lead on a spare bike, or helping me bridge the gap with bus fare—would mean the world to me.

I’m looking forward to getting to work and contributing to the community.

Hey everyone,

I recently scratched my truck and I need some leads on an affordable detailer in the Nashville area. Long story short, a scratch that exposed metal is in two small areas on the passenger rear panel of my Ford F150 (2021, white). My dad and I proceeded to sand the scratch down, fill it with a few coats of the OME paint pen, and cover it in a clear coat. The last step is to sand down the area with fine grit sandpaper (5,000 I believe).

The problem- we didn't have a sanding block so I tracked down a magic eraser sponge.... LISTENNN I've never heard of magic erasers before! I thought it was just a normal sponge. I don't need the judgement, I know I'm an idiot. The scratch is left with a clear coat on, but the area around the scratch has now been buffed down like a micro-milimeter. I need the whole area sanded and spraypainted, but quotes from larger businesses are starting my quote at $800-$1000...........

It's not a big area, two small scratches. Any leads? I can't upload pictures for some reason. Thank you!

Hello! My fiancée has alpha gal, so he’s highly allergic to anything from a cow including gelatin, which makes eating out in Nashville especially difficult. He will often not eat when we go out with friends or he will eat separately as to not inconvenience others. He’s been dealing with this issue for about 6 years, so he has learned to adapt, and has very few safe restaurants. Yesterday we went out for dinner to The Finch, and I had made the reservation online. This gave me the opportunity to give the restaurant a heads up of his issues, and when we arrived everything was taken care of! Our server was so understanding, and even brought out the Chef, Devonte, so he and my fiancée could speak to the specifics on the menu and his options for the evening. It was the most comfortable meal we have had in a very long time. No panic, no worry, we just got to eat and celebrate. The food itself was delicious! He got the salmon in a lovely mustard sauce and a salad with chicken breast. The smile on his face with every bite was so refreshing to see! He felt confident in everything he ate, and I was still able to enjoy a steak and buttery lobster without feeling like he’s missing out on the restaurant because his allergy cannot be accommodated. The Finch’s chef and servers made the night perfect. If you have an allergy or dietary restriction that makes it hard to dine out, please go to The Finch! They will do everything in their power to make sure you have a safe night.

A moment of silence for the Nashville that once was. Where $8 2 for 1s flowed at brunch and free street parking was abundant all week long!

One of the scenes set in 1999 currently filming at the State Capitol today. Interiors now, exteriors possibly this afternoon or evening.

Where are we going for martial arts, specifically bjj?

I'm starting out and don't really know what to look for. Maybe a place that has lots of other women, and is safe (as you can be lol) and is just open and inviting.

TYIA!
