The problem with doctors is that they are fundementally human, just like the patients. Therefore, they are just as susceptible to the mental fears and prejudices as non-doctors. This really comes down to how much you trust other humans beings, and your ability to judge and hold onto that judgement of others.
That said, I would trust a doctor more than, say, a naturopath or a chinese herbalist, simply because they are more qualified in medicine. There is also the ever-present fact that the scientific method is a far better indicator of usefulness and reliability than anecdotal evidence.
