“Doctors from Haiti? God forbid.”

Actually, a large portion of our physicians come from overseas, by design. This is a long standing public policy. We have plenty of people waiting to get into medicals schools who have successfully met the requirements for entry, but we don't allow them to attend. We simply don't accept enough people to our medical schools to fill anywhere near the number of residency spots available. The result is that a lot of physicians in rural and under-served areas went to medical schools overseas.

Personally, I think it's a bad policy that limits the physician supply, and the case of this incompetent physician who claims he can't earn a living without killing American babies is a case in point.
