I get the acute feeling that we're training medical doctors mainly in theory and giving them a very good understanding of human biology, but skipping the crucial step of training them to treat people. I myself had to see several professionals until figuring out my problems are mainly due to severe Vitamin D deficiency. A test that cost all of 30$ to do. It's hard to find someone who doesn't see you and immediately goes "You're under 50? It's stress. You're over 50? It's supposed to hurt, you're old. (My mother was told this, almost verbatim)". To put it another way, if I did my job, the way most doctors seem to do theirs, I would be out of a job. Every other professional is required to understand and practise customer relations, but doctors are somehow given a pass to be almost terminally dismissive of customer requests.
