This is the way. Many doctors don't bother to question what they are taught, they're bombarded with so much information, exams and making presentations that they leave them not wanting to dig deeper or think critically. Also, you can rarely question the doctor giving the class, undermine his authority and you run the risk of a hard/terrible time. There's this strange ego thing among many of the educators and they seem to pass it onto the students.

You need a doctor/patient relationship, it cannot be a one-sided relationship, a lot of patients even known more about their diseases than a lot of docs, because they have a vested interest.
