        Actually it does

        They didn’t bother learning French and they don’t want to eat French food all the time. Sounds like a completely personal.problem when you move to France

          A whole part of it is how they tried to find a doctor, and tried many but couldn’t find on taking new patients. To say they’ve tried nothing doesn’t make much sense.

            A lot of that could very well be French attitude versus American attitude and the doctors offices going, “yeah, no, we’re not accepting new patients.” Accept 5 new French patients 2 minutes later. Especially given the American attitude given off in the quotes in the article are classic entitled behavior. “You mean you can’t make a Martini if it isn’t on the menu!??!!”

              a lot of Americans really don’t understand that people don’t cater to the customer outside the US, you just get perceived as arrogant, doubly so in France and not speaking a lick of French.
