Respectfully, as someone with a family with plenty of medical issues and having experienced plenty of useless doctors, the onus is now on medical professionals to prove their worth. They are a second option and most of their remaining value is in the license to prescribe medication, after being told by laymen what medication is appropriate. They're using the same tools I am and they're worse at evaluating them.

Doctors thinking patients are arrogant is an age old problem.
