So the US has 37% MORE doctors per capita than Canada! Sounds pretty
significant.

Try extrapolating the statistics a little further. The US spends
considerably more on health care than Canada does.

6,347 Dollars spent per capita on health in the United States
3,460 Dollars spent per capita on health in Canada

Factor in the extra expenditure in and the figures are remarkably
similar.
