Over the past sixty years, the pursuit of the medical establishment has ceased to be forming objective,(legitimately) science-based conclusions and adapting medical practice in accordance with new scientific discoveries (contemporary knowledge) to provide the most effective and benign treatment of disease, and has instead become self-serving consensus and conformity with authority.
What is effective intervention or sound advice is no longer of primary importance within the medical industry (which is primarily an industry now and not a vocation), nor decided by research and empiricism, but rather by the hubristic rulings of authorities within the industry, who have more concern for the potential damage to their professional image of admitting actual ignorance or error--past or present--than they do for the consequences of their ignorance or error to the people they are supposed to be helping.
Dr. Marty Makary discusses the stagnation of practice, the willful ignorance, and the hostility toward alternative therapies within contemporary mainstream medicine due to hubris and authoritarian attitudes, and the damage this causes to public health and the public trust.
