I don't think this is quite correct. I mean many practitioners of medicine will have the attitude of ... "if it works, it works". And that's perfectly reasonable.
But if you understand the mechanism of action of a drug (or other treatment), it (often) makes it easier to improve a drug.
So ... some sectors of the "medical field" understandably care only about empirical results. But other sectors would prefer to understand what's going on.
