Why you are resistant is important but you must follow the rules. Bad things beyond your imagination will happen if you click on that email link. The increased scrutiny allows for better patient tracking and care. That needs to be the priority.

Regulatory paperwork and billing are the reason why you are putting in information into the computer. Without these the medical centre closes. Getting the correct information to that department is part of the role.

The better approach would be to automatically filter email containing dangerous link, or automatically prevent whatever dangerous thing that happen when that link is clicked. Is it hard ? Sure, the goal is to maintain security without creating additional burden to the user.
