Granted. But medical doctors are people too. And I can tell you from my experience in the completely different field of technology that I'm far more willing to work with clients who are willing to listen, appreciate effort on their behalf, and are grateful for a solution or workaround that helps them even if it wasn't what they were hoping to hear.
If a client made death threats to me (I've had some go off the deep end but never that far) I have to say I think that'd be a swift end to the working relationship.
