Are you serious? There are bad doctors out there, just as there are people who suck at every job in the world. But to say that doctors in general are dumb is so silly. After all, they go through at least 8 years of school and 5 years of training after school to become a specialist. That's a LOT of training!

My own psychiatrist is extremely well-informed. I research stuff and come to him with detailed questions, and he always answers them and cites the studies where he gets his info. I absolutely trust him. Yesterday my pdoc found at my ferritin (iron) is low, and that's the cause of my restless legs syndrome, and he prescribed me iron supplements. Such a simple thing, and I never would have known without him!
