Of course you love the AMA. They artificially keep supply of doctors low so you can justify the exorbitant costs for a 15 minute consultation. It's no surprise that the state of tech in US Healthcare is also so poor. When you're so busy sitting on your high horse about your education, you dgaf about the actual experience for the patient.
You say the AMA keeps folks from seeing someone who just 'slipped through the cracks' but completely ignore the fact that many folks will complete their medical education training in the Carribbean and then do residency in the US. The worst part, post-residency, it's almost impossible to know where a physician went to medical school because they obfuscate and deflect to where they did their residency.
Also the arrogance surrounding foreign medical professionals in this comment is astounding. Most doctors around the world want to focus on helping their patient actually heal. American doctors just treat symptoms.
PH does a great job of putting filters in place to ensure only the 'best' (whether by polish, value prop, or combo of both) products end up making it to the top. It really forces makers to put their absolute best foot forward when launching.
I agree that we are ripe for an educational system that is truly disruptive. Our current educators are so disconnected from the real world and have no idea how to apply what they teach.

This is so refreshing to read. Feels like 80%+ of ppl i came across in SV over the last 10 years do not have this mindset.
Hold this philosophy close and guard it fiercely. It is your secret weapon in a world of rising mediocrity
It feels like Microsoft has a (bad) deal with every 3rd rate IT leader where the IT leader eschews Microsoft's BS in exchange for being "unfireable" because "who else knows how all the Microsoft stuff works?"
