Ah yeah. I’m from the UK and we don’t really experience that. Although the attitude still exists in the older generation

ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 day agoIt’s not that strange an idea given the extent to which the pharmaceutical industry essentially bribes doctors to prescribe their drugs, or the frequency with which health care organizations defraud Medicare and insurance companies, fraud which often takes the form of unnecessary medical procedures. Blindly trusting any professional is the strange idea (I agree that constant distrust is probably unhelpful).

Boy, isn’t that a great system?
This is all literally all not a thing here. Hospitals aren’t usually private businesses at all and taking bribes is in fact illegal.
Yet older generations still distrust doctors here too

Germany has mostly a public health system and yet doctors are mostly not to be trusted. Public sector can also be pressured into cutting corners
