This is naive. I have been in the doctors position of being assaulted by a patient. No one is going to force you to call the police and to talk to them and to tell them what happened and to press charges. In my case I declined because the person was having a crisis and losing everything and I didn’t feel like also making them the target of government intervention. I don’t know what I would have done in their situation but if it caused them to quit their job I wouldn’t put it past them not to uphold the duties of said job.
