I wonder how many black, Asian, African, Hispanic, etc lives Dr. Cushing and his work saved back then, and through time.

There is a very biased and stupid woman (Dr. Betsy Nabel) running this hospital who needs to be fired immediately for “prejudice” against white men. Gee, I’ll bet all her medical school teachers were from Zimbabwe, Libya, Mauritania, Mauritius and No. Korea.

What a fool and a racist disgrace.

PS: My late uncle was a white, Jewish doctor who never turned anybody away and charged less than that AMA “suggested rates”.

I was once sitting in his office when an elderly woman, her daughter and granddaughter came in for a visit. My uncle only charged them for one person because he knew that they couldn’t afford to pay for all three, and told me so.

He was a child of the depression, having lost his father when he was young. His mother (my grandmother) worked 7 days a week to send him through medical school, which meant that his brother and sister (my mother) couldn’t go to college even-though the average IQ in that family was over 140 on the average, with my uncle’s being about 180.

My uncle wasn’t prejudiced but this stupid bitch at the Women’s Hospital is.

Oh, by the way, my uncle was so smart that he graduated high school at 15, college at 19 and medical school at 23-24, including breaking the Jewish quota at Johns Hopkins University, a great university and a great center of anti-Semitism in the 1920’s and 30’s.

Over the years he delivered between 3-5,000 babies even-though he was just a GP, not a pediatrician, but he had medical privileges at every hospital in Baltimore, and even when he was in his late 70’s, when he roared, everyone listened.

Dr. Nabel will never be a quarter of the person my uncle was but she’ll sure beat him for being prejudiced, by a mile.
