    The acknowledgement of cultural differences when deciding how to proceed with medical treatment is vital, but when these cultural differences interfere with the preservation of life and the public health, a balance must be struck between a respect for other cultures and societal well-being.

Williams and Dr. Ronald Wyatt which discusses racial and ethnic disparities from a health care perspective and why steps should be taken to address it.

My observation of patient interactions with the doctor and nurses influenced me to do more than just help others by treating their illness or injury.
