I have a different take on doctors as most of my friends at school went on to do medicine so when I'm sitting there taking to them now I just think "yeah, whatever Hina, I know you only had crushes on the gay boy band members at school because you were scared of men they were non threatening and how you lived in fear your parents would make you marry your cousin so don't think to tell me how to live my life now."

So, yeah, doctors are just human beings. There's no point looking up to them or demonising them. The fact is almost every out of the ordinary illness I've had I've either had to diagnosis myself and tell them what it was or had to push for months/years for them to take seriously. That's not because something bad has recently happened in medicine, that's always been the way. That's why rich and educated people have better healthcare outcomes everywhere, because they research and they push. They don't just sit back and hope the nice doctor will save them, that's how you die. It's always been necessary, because doctors are just people.
