“Doctors say”

How many, which ones, and why? I have trouble taking articles seriously when they resort to appeals to authority, particularly dubious ones.

These were the same four out of five doctors who recommended Camel cigarettes. You don’t suppose they’d fib about a thing like that, do you?

I asked my dentist once, “If 4 out of 5 dentists recommend this toothpaste, I’d like to talk to that one who didn’t. Tell me your reasoning.”

They weren’t willing to be conversant on the subject.
