Yup, after 10 years you are promoted to Senior Citizen doctor. All you do is leave a buffet of pills in your office and you tell them which colour fixes that problem.

Sad :/

Even assuming that most people are "weak" and will "believe anything," that does not change their desire to get better and to validate their own feelings of illness. For some people, saying "I'm sorry you feel bad, I think you'll feel much better after a few days of rest, you can take some Advil or Tylenol to help with the aches and pains" works just fine. For others, this approach does not work. So, you still tell them to get some rest and that they'll feel better soon, but you give them a prescription for ibuprofen (Advil) and it makes them feel validated and that the doctor has done "something." There is virtually no change in the standard of care, the doctor is not somehow gaining something from writing a prescription and the patient is more satisfied with their care.

For most...yes, most doctors, medicines are always secondary to non-medicinal options of care. I'm sure everyone has some anecdotal story of a time when that didn't happen, but that is most definitely not the case with every doctor, especially those of the newer generation.
