Contempt Prior to Investigation

I was thinking earlier, that often I watch on TikTok, African American doctors when making their hospital rounds are greeted by hospital patients, "Are you here to take my blood or an x-ray?"
When these MDs state that they are their doctors, these patients say, really?
So disrespectful and I believe it is a mindset, from days of yore that continues. Pretty sad.
I did it once, in 1978, when I called another pharmacy for a prescription copy and a woman answered. I asked her if I could speak to the pharmacist and she said, I am the pharmacist ... whoops!
Mindsets that these doctors are a prelude to racism, deeply embedded racism that plagues our nation.
These doctors went to school for a long time and it has to be a slap in the face, because of the color of their skin not to be believed by the general public.
