No Healthcare Without Immigrants

from WORT 89.9FM Madison · host WORT 89.9FM Madison

Healthcare in the US depends on immigrant doctors, but these physicians face a paradox: they’re celebrated as essential but are subjected to intense scrutiny and bias. On today’s show, host Dana Pellebon is in conversation with historian Dr. Eram Alam, about the history of migrant physicians and how they filled roles in rural areas neglected by American-born doctors.
