A General Practitioner doctor deals with all health ailments. as a consequence they are not trained to be experts in all health ailments; they are trained in the first steps of dealing with all ailments (which is a difficult endeavour).
That's a defense for the claim that doctors aren't experts at everything. It's not evidence for that claim that doctors are very good at general health.
alright; I can wear that. I think I meant to say; "general practitioner doctors are very not good at oddly specific health" have adjusted the post above. Did not mean to make that claim.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
