So you would rather a doctor just guess on something that there wasn't education for while he was in school. Let's say the Doctor is 60 years old. That would mean he probably went to school roughly 40 years ago, right? Maybe finished 30 years ago, there have been a ton of changes in medicine since then, and not all platforms are able to be covered.

Like I said, WebMD is fine, wikipedia is not.
Just because it's been a long time since the doctor was in school doesn't mean anything. If anything, that should mean they're more familiar with the every-day ailments that people are going to go to the doctor for. So my point stands, I'd rather my doctor just not need to use WebMD.
