In addition, all White Female Doctors should have their Medical Licenses downgraded to Physicians Assistant Certifications or RN Nurse Degrees.
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.
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.
I’m so sick of this Shiite.
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.
Affirmative Action sucks.
This white female physician makes exactly what my male and black counterparts make. In 30 years of medical practice I have never made anything more or less than my male or minority colleagues for the same job and experience level. I find this hard to believe, other than the fact that some specialties are compensated much more generously than others. Maybe there are less female or black neurosurgeons....
Maybe because people are doing what my father - a doctor - advised me to do after the “Bakke” decision in the late ‘70s: only go to white male docs if they were younger than about 25 at that time. Why? Because they will have gotten into med school with a significant handicap (Affirmative Action), so they will be smarter than their minority or female compatriots of a similar age. He told me that for older docs, the opposite was true, that they were smarter to get in with significant discrimination against them. He didn’t like to give that advice, but he said that since you won’t get to examine their med school application, or compare it to those of their classmates, that this policy was the safest bet.
Has nothing to do with their abilities and IQ, or where they choose to open a practice.
Would you rather go to a doctor who had the deck stacked against him, but made it into medical school anyway, the affirmative action admission, or the two point affirmative action admission?
It must be all the competition among Black Doctors. I have noticed that around 90% of all Dr.s are Black and maybe 70% of those are female.
That has to be correct as TV would never mislead you.
I have no problem paying a black doctor the same as a top white doctor provided he went to the same top school (and not as an affirmative action case either), earned the same top grades, blew everyone away during his residency and fellowship, published a number of outstanding papers in his specialty, etc. ‘Course the article fails to take any of that into account.
People don’t want to end up like Kanye West’s mom
