Very simplistic view. The devil is in the details and health care is a very complicated profession: Go to a doctor with a symptom like "feeling tired all the time". This could be anything from "normal" to cancer to whatever. Doctor will run some tests and get the results back. They have to request specific tests and each one costs money. Ever look at the results of lab tests? Certain #'s may be "borderline". Others will be elevated and the doctor will make an educated guess based on what the results may be. They'll try something and wait to see what effect it will have. This is complicated by the fact that not all treatments work the same for all people. I am not a doctor but my daughter has been through years of treatment for severe organ disease, has developed an auto-immune hepatitis that is under treatment now. No miracle cures there and we all recognize the ups and downs of health. My wife works for a world renowned specialist in Infectious Diseases and sees patients from all over the country who come to him after all else has failed. He is not a "god" but he's world renowned in his field for a reason: he's darn good. Sometimes his diagnoses and treatments help, sometimes they don't but patients expect "perfect outcomes" from him and get upset when he tells them there's nothing more HE can do. And people take doctors "to task", not for playing God, but because they don't get that "perfect outcome". Your comment is silly that the health care industry is not held to the same standard as other professions. It is highly regulated, licensed and under a microscope, more so than any other profession. Sure there are bad doctors. There are also bad cops that abuse their power and "play God".
