here’s the thing though: imagine that the one with a higher IQ has worse bedside manner, thinks they know better than you and don’t listen to your concerns, and they’re just ultimately as asshole… while the doctor with an average or above average IQ excels in those areas and simply has a smaller practice but more dedicated patient population. Would their IQ really matter to you if one is a mean & dismissive doctor while the other is open to your concerns and takes you seriously.
