I don't have a source for how many non-millionaires in the US have to go through a number of doctors to get a correct diagnosis-- I just know a fair number of people (some online-only) who've done it. They probably have average or better incomes, though it would be worth checking. It isn't a cheap process, at least in terms of time, and I'm guessing that poor people are less likely to have the self-assurance to do it.
Your assumption is that the difference in Germany is in the degree of trust in doctors rather than better diagnosis?
I would guess that thing that separtes those people that you know online from the average person isn't only that the have more money but that the make decisions differently than the average person.
