Kes: Because, of course, only completely healthy people who are never going to experience accidents, disease, or growing older go to doctors, so there is absolutely no reason that doctors should be trained to expect to care for people with disabilities. Did you know that last year Tufts Hospital lost a lawsuit for not providing accomodations for people with disabilities, including not having hospital beds that allowed for people in wheelchairs to move from a wheelchair to a hospital bed? Because that never happens in a hospital.
