It's unfortunate that this exists. If I need emergency medical I don't care who helps. In the air, on the ground, or afloat I'd be happy to get any help I could. Maybe with time the numbers of women and minority women MDs will increase and this trend will become less prevalent.

"Part of the challenge: only 2% of physicians in the U.S. are black women."

That's truly unfortunate.

Unbelievable in this day and age. I don't give a vermin's backside who you are, what your gender is, or the color of your skin if I need a doctor. If I need help, I need help..PERIOD. Very unfortunate that the Flight Attendants thought this way.
