All valid complaints. However when you look at how doctors deal with data and information tech they seem unable to innovate in that space. No medical establishment has the capability to make something like what Apple is doing. It just doesn't exist in that intellectual DNA. Furthermore, in my experience doctors are terrified of tech. They fear being replaced for some reason. I've seen it over and over.

(full disclosure, I've been working the the health sector for a while making new applications using Apple's HealthKit.)
