Part of it is systemic though. Those that do have professional curiosity are unable to explore it due to constraints by insurance companies. Overall cost is the primary motive instead of quality of life. I imagine working in the medical industry is very disappointing for people that entered it with the intention of helping people.

I understand why the public is like that, a lot of people don't understand the scientific method but doctors have done all 3 of the sciences and then gone on for another 6 years of graduate and post graduate study.
- toyg 6y agoThe NHS has massive internal pressures on costs. It’s considered one of the most cost-effective health services in the world, but that’s because they will try to get away with doing the minimum they absolutely have to in order not to look negligent. Children and at-risk groups (the elderly, pregnant, etc) get a lot of care, everyone else is deprioritized and sent home with a bit of ibuprofen. I have experience of other health services on the continent and the comparison does not flatter the NHS.
