It depends I guess. Does a surgeon or anesthesiologist have to know Dutch to be successful? Or even a dentist? Btw the Netherlands has quite a few people who don't speak Dutch at all..
- tormeh 8y agoSouthern Europeans usually don't speak English very well either. So there's no easy solution.
- phobosdeimos 8y agoWell yes they do. My English is pretty decent, but I think most people would have problems having technical discussions about their health in English. Imagine a 70 year old with dementia in a nursing home. Miscommunication in healthcare costs lives.
- apexalpha 8y agoYes, (by far) most people want to be able to talk to their surgeon or dentist.
