Much of their information comes from overpaid fabulous pharmaceutical reps.
MDs are salesmen. In a very big way.
Some do and those are the ones you want on your team as long as possible. I’m looking for another pcp as I moved recently. So far it is not going well. The last one pushed me hard on the vaccine. Gave me grief when I provided some information... politely. I just looked at her and thought “she knows who I work for (government entity) and what I do and she’s telling me I don’t have good information?”. Sigh. God complex in some cases.
