The vast majority of medical doctors are not so much as "scientists" as mechanics for the human body. You study the symptoms, make test measurements, come up with possible diagnoses, select the most probably, and then treat accordingly.

Humans may not evolve over the doctor's lifetime, but their diseases will.
