If someone with dark skin gets a real doctor to look at them, because it’s known that this thing doesn’t work at all in their case, then they are better off, really.

Doctors are best at diagnosing skin cancer in people of the same skin type as themselves, it’s just a case of familiarity. Black people should have black skin doctors for highest success rates, white people should have white doctors for highest success rates. Perhaps the next generation of doctors might show more broad success but that remains to be seen in research.
