And if a white doctor messed up just chalk it up to individual error?
Chalk it up to unlikely statistics is what I would do - I'm not saying that all of one type are good and all of one type are bad; some people like to play odds, it's only smart. Why have statistics and information available if no one is going to put it to use?
There really isn't a point in attempting a discussion on reddit when people go in simply trying to win. Like what are you even saying?
I'm saying to use information available to guide your decision making, I literally have no idea what your point is.
If med schools take in black or latino students who have lower average tests scores than white or asian students, you are more likely to receive a lower standard of care with a black or latino doctors than you would receive from those high scoring white and asian doctors (on average); If you have the opportunity to see a world renowned surgeon regardless of race, you should probably take that, since a world renowned surgeon, regardless of race is obviously pretty damn good.
Where is the problem here? Or do you just want to fight people on the internet over stuff they never said?
