    There sure are a lot of ignorant answers here!

    The Amish who need to see a doctor go to regular doctors. Most Amish schools only go up through 8th grade. Higher learning is discouraged. There are very few Amish who become doctors. If they do, they would leave the Amish and attend regular universities like other medical students. There is no special program just for Amish.

    The Hippocratic Oath encourages those who get their MD to go where the need is great and devote their life to helping people with their health, so I'll bet a lot of them Amish doctors are regular people who don the Amish look just to make sure people are taken care of.

  • I've actually go to Amish Pennsylvania quite often. There are some medical schools in the area. It's not all farm, cows, and manure. They have grocery stores and churches and restaurants just like us.

    They can also read a book.....

    They don't have doctors within their culture. The leader grants permission for an individual to seek medical help outside of their community.

    They generally have the wise home remedy guru, but that won't do much if someone is seriously ill.

    They more likely attend the Dynasty Uni with the Duck Guys

    They don't. Since its against their religion to use any electricity, and that's what a lot of it is today, they use old methods, or adapt from new ones.
