Illegal Aliens Unhappy with Shortage of Bilingual Doctors
American Thinker ^ | February 22, 2015 | Pedro Gonzales

Posted on 02/22/2015 11:31:54 AM PST by jazusamo

The LA Times reported that illegal aliens are unhappy that not enough doctors speak Spanish. The article never used the words "illegal" or "undocumented" or "dreamer" or "super virtuous" or however we are to call illegal aliens nowadays; only referring to "Hispanics" who can't understand English. But since all citizens understand English, or should, I presume that the article is only talking about illegal aliens. Now let the sob story begin:

Every day, chronically ill Latino patients stream into Harbor-UCLA Medical Center's family medicine clinic.

Some have neglected their health because they're flummoxed or alienated by the medical system, Dr. Gloria Sanchez believes.

The illegal aliens are... alienated! How ironic is that! They are also flummoxed! Have you ever seen an illegal alien flummoxed? If we put up a double layer fence across the US Mexico border, I do believe we'd see a lot of them flummoxed!

But such doctors are in short supply, said Sanchez, a professor and physician at the Harbor City facility. In 1980, there were 135 Latino doctors for every 100,000 Latinos in the U.S. By 2010, that number had fallen to 105.

The number of doctors hasn't "fallen". The number of illegal aliens had dramatically increased.

Irma Torres, 75, remembered one conversation with her 70-year-old husband, Miguel, when he was hospitalized for a heart condition.

"I asked him, 'What did the doctor say?'" she recalled. "And he said, 'I don't know.'"

Don't you hate it when you invade another country and when you seek out free medical care, they don't speak your language???

Angelina Campos, a 55-year-old who suffers from high blood pressure and migraines, was at the clinic to have her injured knee checked by Sanchez.

My husband should just start numbering his jokes for me, too, but I don’t remember numbers very well or jokes at all, so they all kind of sound new to me, as long as he rotates them infrequently.

I don’t know about Mexico, but because I have been looking into healthcare in Central America, theirs is a socialist system with social security providing services in their healthcare system at nominal fees. Unless you want to pay out of pocket, then you can get help at the big, modern hospitals.

Or it can be said, it is hard to find a doctor who speaks your language, which for me would be English.

Who didn’t see this sh*t coming? It’s only going to get worse and then the lawsuits will start. The illegal alien Mexicans want America to be Mexico North.

Yep, the illegal alien supporting La Raza turkeys have been demanding rights for illegals as well as their dream of Azatlan.

Solution: LEARN ENGLISH, MORONS! Or, go home to Mexico (or where you call home).

Or Miami, where a middle-aged neighbor lost her RN job because she “Wouldn’t know what to do if an emergency developed”.
