I’ll have to ask Dr. Ben Carson about this next time I see him....

This is again another B.S. online media twit rag piece trying to work up the Whites against the Blacks, as if we don’t have enough problems!!!

“I think it comes down to, who is the patient most comfortable with?”

Yep... And I bet (no experience in this) that black prostitutes make less as well. And that black women marry less well-to-do husbands.

Sucks to be black. Sorry, but @ the end of the day I need something based on an empirical result.

The only way to rectify this obviously unfair situation is to immediately revoke the Medical Licenses of all White Male Doctors.

In addition, all White Female Doctors should have their Medical Licenses downgraded to Physicians Assistant Certifications or RN Nurse Degrees.

The doctor who murdered Michael Jackson is black. And he barely got a slap on the wrist for it (6 years in prison, I think).

non-whites of the world, UNITE!

but seriously, have the libfags ever thought that part of the problem is that there are fewer black doctors, thus fewer OBGYNs, cardios, surgeons, etc. to bring up their average earnings? Because fewer of them work hard in school and behave? Or look how fewer blacks who do go to college proportionally study pre-med curricula.

I know that a white male doctor had to jump through every hoop, ace every test, and fight and claw his way through medical school. I don’t want a doctor who was shown the easy path, and got to slide his way through medical school. I am sure there are some great minority or women doctors out there, but with affirmative action, how do you know who is who?

Oh how it sucks to be a white man.

I think I will be a black transgender for a while and get into those cool new bathrooms!

One thing for sure. White men should work less hard, leave more work for others to do./s

Alahwahoo Whackbar!

Funny how that works, since Medicare and private insurance pay FIXED fees for services rendered. Nothing else is taken into consideration.

Perhaps the evil white doctors work longer hours, are more dedicated to their patients or have a larger practice base because of their COMPETENCE.

What they didn’t say they “controlled” for matters.

“even after accounting for factors such as field of medical specialty, experience, and hours worked.”

They left out a real big indicator and that is geographic region. The number of Doctors and the demand for them varies wildly also a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills is much more likely to make more money than one in podunkville.

These kind of stories are designed to race bait not inform. They are racist by design even as they try to allege racism.

Somewhat related, but I went to an assigned doctor for my FAA flight physical.

His name was something like “Abraham Israel Silverstein.”

I assumed he was Jewish. He was Methodist and claims to have nary a Jewish person in the woodpile. He said people have always thought he was Jewish.

I asked if he considered changing his name.

He replied: “Not a chance. It’s good for business.”

With all the affirmative action, it’s hard to trust a black doc, though I have had some and it worked for me.

Let’s see. A vast majority of doctors are white, they have also likely practiced longer than their dark skinned brothers. They also likely are in more affluent neighborhoods. Makes sense. Time a capitalism is all it takes to “equal” out.

BS. We all sign the same contracts. The highest paid doc in my practice is a black cardiologist.

These idiots do know that there are also factors like the size of the hospital, number of people seen, and even the physical location of the building? Not to mention types of payments they take.

Or the black doctors may be pressed to serve black patients, a disproportional number of whom are on Medicaid or other welfare programs, which cuts into their earnings.
