A woman says a cardiologist in California refused to treat her mom because she doesn't speak English — and a video of the exchange has gone viral.

A cardiologist in California is facing backlash after a woman came forward saying that he refused to treat her mother because she doesn't speak English.

On Thursday, Yuset Galura accompanied her 67-year-old mother to visit Dr. Paul Ryan, a cardiologist, as first reported on KTLA. But things didn't go as planned.

As Galura becomes upset with the doctor for not seeing her mother, Ryan says, "I am an American, born here."

Galura told KTLA that she's unhappy with what happened during the doctor's appointment.
