> I don’t want a doctor who has another country they call home. I want a doctor who feels some blood and soil attachment to their patients.
But like... why? Why does that matter at all?

FYI, "blood and soil" is a white supremacist dog whistle. That would probably explain the why.
Ugh, we need hard IP bans on this site.
The same reason a parent cares for their child more than a random strangers? Cultures and people matter.
I think you fundamentally misunderstood any aspect of society, civility and community building if you adhere to such ideas. The issue at hand is bad governance and resource management, not that “immigrants should be kept out”.
Immigration is needed at different parts of a country’s economic timeline, and the levels of immigration needed can vary depending on your needs to balance labor supply and demand. This isn’t about racism, or cultural differences. This is about good governance.
Doctors with proper training will do what they were trained for. Maybe personality traits play a role as well secondary, but stuff like culture is just noise compared to what really matters.
Not really. How they handle you with regards to the health care apparatus is a major part of what makes for a successful doctor patient relationship.
Could you specify that? Maybe there's a difference between Europe and the US.
Maybe lol? There is basically no way of knowing cost going into anything or whether or not it will wind up being covered. Also when they get around to demanding money they won't necessarily do it all at once, you can get a bill a year after a visit even though they billed you the first time 4 months ago or some shit. A doctors office can handle this well with significant effort on their part or not.
Nope, sorry, still not seeing it. You'll have to spell it out for me.
Are you saying that if you were a doctor you'd care less about patients from another country?
Yes, that is what they're saying. They're projecting and assuming everybody else is just like them. Thankfully, they're not.
Because jingoism.
