Very
interesting
experience
with
the
Korall
clinic.
My
sister
called
the
clinic
at
the
beginning
of
January
for
an
appointment
for
diabetes
tests
for
my
84-year-old
mother.
Was
told
to
call
in
February
that
they
don't
have
funds
at
this
time.
Around
the
beginning
of
February,
for
a
week
he
called
several
times
a
day
and
no
one
answered.
At
one
point,
out
of
curiosity,
he
pressed
the
Hungarian
language
key
and
suddenly
someone
very
kindly
answered
him
in
Hungarian.
She
was
no
longer
as
kind
when
she
realized
that
my
sister
didn't
know
Hungarian,
and
somehow
in
a
hurry
she
put
up
the
"we
don't
have
funds"
sign
again.
It's
not
a
problem,
we,
the
children,
pay
for
the
tests
that
she
wouldn't
be
able
to
afford
from
the
survivor's
pension,
but
I'm
curious:
if
my
sister
spoke
Hungarian,
would
those
funds
exist?
Do
you
know
the
irony?
Our
mother
is
of
Hungarian
origin,
she
married
our
Romanian
father
and
lived
among
Romanians.
We,
her
children,
know
basic
Hungarian,
that
is,
enough
to
get
along
with
our
grandparents.
Since
they're
gone,
I've
forgotten
this
and
that.
I
have
been
to
the
Korall
clinic
several
times
with
my
mother
in
several
departments:
Dr.
Soponar
Laura
who
is
a
doctor
and
a
top
ten
person.
As
professional
and
empathetic
as
the
diabetic
doctor
lady,
the
name
escapes
me
at
the
moment.
Only
nice
words
for
Dr
Bancea
from
Dermatology.
But
downstairs,
at
the
reception,
despite
the
fact
that
there
was
a
swarm
of
nurses
who
looked
like
they
were
running
the
law
in
the
clinic,
only
Hungarian
was
spoken.
You
hardly
managed
to
enter
a
dialogue
in
Romanian.
At
the
laboratory,
which
is
right
next
to
the
reception,
the
same
thing.
And
I
must
sadly
admit
that
there
were
visible
differences
in
behavior/empathy
between
Hungarian
vs
Romanian
speakers.
Yes
I
know.
It
is
a
private
company
and
they
can
choose
their
patients.
And
yet,
I
can't
help
but
wonder:
wouldn't
it
be
better
to
put,
as
a
precaution,
on
the
nameplate,
a
warning
that
it
is
intended
for
Hungarian-speaking
patients?
And
that
the
others
who
stubbornly
cross
its
threshold
will
be
treated
as
second-class
citizens.
Oh,
one
more
detail:
I
also
know
Hungarian.
About
as
much
Romanian
as
the
nurses
at
the
reception
know.
