One can very easily obtain medical knowledge, rudimentary or advanced, through the Internet. Whenever I had a medical situation that I knew nothing about, I always made it my business to check it out before going to the appointment. My PCP wished everyone else in town would do same.
So if we have computers or there are libraries with computers, there is no excuse to not gain knowledge on one's own.
