And this is the goal so should be a win, win for everyone as long as they have GOOD doctors.
Not necessarily. It's also up to the patient. I know many people who have taken themselves off their prescribed medications because of some fragment of info taken out of context that Dr. Oz or somebody else on television talked about. "Good" doctors can't make people take their medicine and alter their unhealthy and risky behaviors.
