I am glad you mentioned the reactions of the patients. I definitely agree that many patients will either be irritated, annoyed, or even angry with the physician for misunderstanding and misdiagnosing them. A misdiagnosis could lead the patient to be untreated for the actual disease, which could magnify in severity, such as cancer or even the possibility of death. Then if this consequence happens, the patient or the patient’s family will sue the physician, who was responsible for the misdiagnosis.
