Yeah, a family member and I had to basically throw studies at a doctor to get him to agree to prescribe a medicine he insisted "doesn't work" (even despite studies clearly showing it does, like indisputably). Even after that he still said something like "sure, whatever, if you want to try it you can", all dismissively as if we're stupid and wasting our time. Oh, and then he prescribed an amount that would never work. We still wonder if he sabotaged it on purpose. Had to go back and get it re-prescribed at the actually-correct amount. The medication worked, and we avoided a completely unnecessary surgery. I have so, so many stories like this.
