The morals of some Doctors get in the way of unbiased advice
Does your Doctor provide unbiased, professional and straightforward medical advice to you based on medical science and proven methods? Don't be so sure.A recent survey on the views of physicians on controversial medical procedures concluded that some physicians have a moral outlook that influences the advice they give to their patients.
In one example cited in the survey, 52% of doctors objected to the use of abortion due to failed contraception -- and about 40% of doctors said that a 16-year-old would not be given a a contraceptive without parental consent.

It would be easy for me to go on a rant here. After over 12 years of what turns out to be an undiagnosable progressive illness, I can confidently say that overinflated ego is an occupational hazard for many doctors.
You aren't so apt to notice this if you have something they can manage, but when you start frustrating their desire to succeed by not getting better, you really begin to see the problem. And in general, in my experience, the more reknowned the doctor, the greater the ego problem.
