Or like many practicing medical professionals in many specialties where the patient demand is high enough to fill their week ... they don't have time to keep abreast of current research in their field and since they aren't required to, they just don't. There is usually some required ongoing professional development but that is in no way designed to ensure they keep up with current research consensus, more that they don't continue doing things the old way when we know about newer better ways.
