Questions

How many German-speaking doctors are there in Spain?
We list 56, in 10 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Barcelona, with 16 of the 56.
Is German unusual for doctors in Spain?
41% of the 137 doctors we hold in Spain are recorded as working in German. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
