The article states that over 40 languages are spoken there. Why single out Spanish?

Because here in Wtby the Puerto Ricans and Dominicans seem to far outnumber anyone else.
Of course, there are also the Portuguese, Italians, Romanians, Mexicans, Ukrainians....

Well, the writer used an Hispanic surname for his exploited examplar so that was established; the other 39 languages combined only represent a small percentage of the dominant foreign language made an example here.
As far as trnslating the medical terms that is pretty much hopeless as doctors aren't taught to speak plain english either.
