“Sometimes they’re right, sometimes they’re wrong.”
In this case, the TEST was right, the NURSE-MIDWIFE was wrong due to her inability to count.
“That being said, a nurse - midwife is not licensed to provide medical diagnoses, only nursing diagnoses. That is the realm of an MD or Nurse Practioner.”
I’m not a medical professional, nor am I sufficiently familiar with the field to comment accurately on what you’re saying. She was a nurse-midwife, but may have also been a nurse-practitioner. I remember that she did have a Ph.D., and that not all the nurse-midwives in the practice had one.
However, it seemed standard practice that one of the mid-wives would provide the results from the AFP test. I know that the laws governing nurse-midwifery vary somewhat from state to state, and I don’t know what specifically is legal or standard in Maryland versus other states.
“It sounds also that she may have been motivated by a militant-feminist ‘empowerment’ agenda that moved her to steer you into the murderous clutches of Planned Parenthood for ‘professional prenatal care.’”
That wasn’t my impression at all. I think that she was just plain old dumb. Stupid. Not very bright.
The practice's senior-most member was quick to make the correction in diagnosis once she was alerted to Moron's mis-reading of the test results.

Thanks very much for your clarification and I agree, stupidity seems to have oozed quite profusely in this case.
I’m delighted to understand that everything ultimately turned out well :-)
