Yes, doctors are very smart and well trained. But medicine as a whole has a lot of completely insane practices. For example, have you ever tried to sleep in a hospital? They generally run very cool, daylight temperature lights 24/7, with tons of noisy machines, and the nurses wake patients every hour. And it's not just the patients who are getting their circadian rhythms destroyed, the residents themselves are doing 30+ hour shifts. It dates back to the first medical residency, started by William Stewart Halsted who was a cocaine fiend and expected everyone else to keep the same hours. We know that sleep deprivation impairs your driving ability just as much as being drunk. So why do we accept doctors and nurses being sleep deprived?
