Question What You Believe

Healthcare suffers from blind spots stemming from a culture defined by dogma, groupthink, and the suppression of scientific debate. This condition, inherent to human nature, predisposes individuals to accept initial information without critical analysis, regardless of its scientific merit. Just as people may become loyal to specific products for personal care, they often cling to established medical beliefs and dismiss conflicting ideas. The phenomenon of cognitive dissonance plays a significant role, as individuals prefer maintaining a singular belief system and subconsciously reject or reinterpret new information that challenges their views.
