Doctors sadly are drilled to produce results in an industrial manner. Strange edge cases are relegated to research, but if a doctor has to work off many patients, a patient who needs thought or patience is just irritating.
Really? How?
I'd say it's currently an issue of the medical system being vastly overwhelmed. We don't have nearly enough staff to handle the many health crises in the country, and it doesn't help that many preventable cases get ignored for a long time (out of fear of overpaying) until they require far more extensive treatment.
As such, doctors don't really have a choice but to rush their visits and take overbooking.
Sounds like we need to rethink how we educate doctors - considering we need more.
