Organic food: Doctors sometimes don't receive much education on proper nutrition. If you feel uncomfortable with your physician, it may be helpful to seek treatment elsewhere.

Docs are people too: What turns doctors into cynics and skeptics that scoff at natural medicine and organic food? Lack of specific knowledge. Attitude of already knowing everything. Negative mindset about change. Fear of not knowing (easier to dismiss) emotional reactions to shame, disappointment and loss. Making quick decision based on limited or mis-information.
