Abstract
OUR PRACTICE IS ONE OF TWO IN A COMMUNITY WHERE MANY OF US speak Spanish. The data from the 2000 census showed a 500% increase in the Hispanic population in our county. Some days it seems as though most of them find their way to our practice. One census map shows the counties in the United States with Latino populations of higher than 20%, and other than the obvious border counties of the Southwest and such places as Florida and New York, counties with large Latino populations are scattered right across the Great Plains from Ohio to Kansas and, in recent years, down into the Middle Atlantic states. Fluency in Spanish is more than a nice addition to a residency applicant's curriculum vitae; it gets extra points come time for the match.
