A medical watchdog group has called out a recently cited study that claims having racially diverse medical facilities improves outcomes for Black patients. The report ignores the very question it purports to answer: whether black patients actually fare better with black doctors. Dr. M, who headed the clinic, was American-born but of Persian descent. When my husband, Lynn, fractured his wrist on a job site, Dr. M actually stayed past his office's closing hours so he could see us. However, it doesn't change the current landscape, and frankly, it makes what is deemed medical care more frightening than facing the actual disease.
