no way, my wife had breast cancer and her doctor said the lump was due to breat feeding our son, luckily she insisted on going private , but even hen her oncologist gave her the all clear and then we found it had spread to her bones, so no doctors just think they are godlike but as so often they are fallible and have feet of clay, my wife died aged 40.

No way! I have a cousin who is a M.D. and I think in their training they must be told they are next in line to God because her attitude drastically changed. No one in the family is allowed to have an opinion, her way is always right. We all make mistakes and M.D's are no different, it is just that when they mess up it affects a life. They just don't want to admit they made a mistake.

That's a big fat no from me. Without going in to details I formed this opinion after a screw up years ago. Not serious but enough to make me doubt most of them.

Not even close. Even if we assume that deities are fallible (we humans DEFINITELY are) there are a few other differences. 1) Gods can bring back people who have actually been dead and destroyed. EMTs can bring back people who were clinically deceased for a few minutes. Most Doctors can't even bring back a decent cup of coffee. 2) Gods are easilly capable, both physically and morally, of bringing about great suffering. Doctors generally are not morally capable and those rare miscreants that are (like Mengele) are pretty much restricted to physical and and psychological measures. 3) Practically everybody agrees that MDs exist.

No definitely not. I question everything and insist on knowing every step of any treatment and the absolute truth at all times. They often get things wrong and sometimes mix ups are made that have tragic results. You should always know what is going on. They are just people and we all make mistakes.The difference is that a Doctors mistake can be fatal to a loved one

Never. I question every-thing. They are not quite what they think they are.

There is a reason they call it 'practicing' medicine. Our knowledge is ever changing and growing. Humans make mistakes.

I don't but I think often they think of themselves as such and don't like bring questioned, have a hard time saying "I don't know". LOL!
