Delta Air Lines crew 'doubted black doctor's credentials' as she attended to passenger

A black doctor has claimed crew on a Delta Air Lines flight doubted her credentials as she attended to a fellow passenger who was unwell. Fatima Cody Stanford, a doctor at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, said she was on a flight from Indianapolis to Boston when a woman sitting next to her began hyperventilating. Dr Stanford told CNN she was helping the passenger when a flight attendant intervened and asked if she was a physician, to which she replied she was.
