Looking for a Lottery Win or just looking to blame someone for a natural event. No doctor can guarantee success.

I see a lot of race baiting in that article but no hard evidence.

Why? If it’s so blatant and common and obvious why not report the actual racist incidents?

Instead they point to ONE figure of ONE study as if there’s only 2 races in America (and based on color at that).

The whole thing is a provable sham.

IF the surgeon cut into the bladder and they didn’t catch the cut or the subsequent bleeding....

Jeez louise.

I seriously doubt it had anything to do with race and everything to do with gross incompetence on a systemic level.

If what is alleged actually happened, I don’t why the plaintiff’s attorney would drag race into this at all, except to dare the crap out of the defendant’s attorneys and/or Jack the payout.

Perhaps the husband should have chosen a minority owned and staffed hospital.

Yawn...

The race card has been so overplayed that even many blacks are tired of it.

IIRC Cedars-Sinai is a major teaching hospital of either UCLA or USC...two of the best medical schools in the country. Having worked for decades at a very famous hospital I know a bit about things like this. I'd wager everything I own that there was no racism of any kind here.However,there very well could have been basic malpractice involved.

The family may very well have good reason to sue...but citing racism is surely their lawyer's attempt to get extra $$$.IOW,just another slimy ambulance chaser supported by vermin like BLM and "Reverend" Al.

Because you do have racism very much so in the operating room.”

The notion that any injury to a black person is due to racism is now fully embedded in our culture. I see it all the time at work. There are multiple black people that fully and irrationally believe any criticism of their work is racism.

No the racism is about not following up on the subsequent symptoms.

No, not "racism..." Not a "culture of racism..." More like a "a systemic culture of micro-aggressive racism."

Sounds "classier" somehow!

You don't seem to understand... It's a "framework of non-contextualized subliminal racism" by Asian medical personnel who have become "complicit" in their "anti-Black micro-racism."

Yes. It is a fact that 50% of surgeons graduated in the lower half of their class. There are a few great ones, a lot of competent ones, and always a number of bad ones.

Hanlon’s Razor (revised): Never ascribe to malice or racism that which is adequately explained by incompetence or stupidity.

This is clearly made up. It states she was married and he was there…
