Patient who objected to 'Asian doctor' silenced
A GP has praised the receptionist at a Glasgow surgery for silencing a patient who said they did not want to see an "Asian doctor".
Dr Punam Krishan took to Twitter to express her pride in her team - and described the positive response to her post as "uplifting".
She said the receptionist had explained that Dr Krishan was Scottish, only to be told: "She doesn't look Scottish."
The receptionist then replied: "What do Scottish people look like?"
This story made me smile today. Dr Krishan goes on to state that she was happy to treat the racist patient despite their bigotry. Good on ya girl.
Decency 1 - 0 Bigotry
This is actually what a Scottish Doctor looks like.
