1. My Nephrologist is from Kenya.

Prior to that my Nephrologist was from Malaysia. One of my transplant surgeons was from India.

This country depends on the brilliance of these foreign doctors to fill the void to care for America's patients.

3. Not just doctors

One of my oncology nurses was from the Philippines. My pharmacist was from India. My ICU nurse was from Nigeria. The hematologist who did my chemo was from Pakistan.
