Bear in mind, my friend, that in past, there's no question whatsoever that doctors almost always did more harm than good, yet, it was still a highly respected profession! Disinformation is power, and, doctors always were, and still are, superb liars. That's what "bedside manner" is -- disinformation. I'm by no means convinced that doctors don't still, do, in general, more harm than good. I never go to the doctor, never take any medications of any type -- not even over the counter ones -- and, I'm never sick. Good diet and good exercise will keep you healthier than any doctor ever will.
