Comment on Should you trust that doctor?
CookieOfFortune@lemmy.world 2 days agoSo Dr. Strange is trained in neurosurgery, which is a 7 year residency compared to 3-4 years for internal medicine. He may have also done a neurosurgery fellowship for 2 years.

He definitely should be higher than J.D. if we’re going just by special issues. I would rather have him overseeing my brain surgery than J.D.
But if I was in the hospital for a more common ailment, I’ll take an expert in internal medicine over a neurosurgeon.
In fact, if I was in the hospital for, for example, getting poisoned by something and no one can figure out what, I’d pick an expert in internal medicine over a neurosurgeon.

JD should definitely be higher than Strange on the Y axis. He cares way more for his patients.
