I've had the exact same experience with American doctors. What is that? These people are supposed to be scientific thinkers. They've had years of biology. But I've never met a doctor who applies the scientific method, or cares to. They are a fundamentally uncurious bunch.

I suspect it's economic. The faster they can reach a diagnosis, the more patients they can see, the more money they make. It certainly pays to shop around in order to find a doctor that you are comfortable with and then stick with them for life.
