It is quite important for medical school. Doctors give poor care when they say, "You don't have a problem," rather than, "Science does not know how to deal with this problem." Examples of this include "complementary" medicine that is supported by science (http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/11/upshot/labels-like-alternative-medicine-dont-matter-the-science-does.html http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/11/upshot/labels-like-alterna...) but which doctors are not necessarily educated about, and even worse, the false certainty around prostate cancer screening which has led to urination problems and erectile dysfunction and even death for many men who would not have died from prostate cancer (http://www.cancer.gov/types/prostate/research/overtreatment http://www.cancer.gov/types/prostate/research/overtreatment). Doctors must know the limits of their scientific knowledge or they endanger the lifespan and the quality of life of their patients.
