The problem is the word “employ” in that sentence. They are going to do what their boss tells them to.

I don’t think it can be expected to have doctors all the way up the chain. Even in the UK’s nationalized healthcare system, the chief is not a doctor, and I assume many under her are not either:

Even if the chief was the doctor, they would be getting their funds from the political leaders, who are most likely not all going to be doctors.
