I cannot trust that doctor to operate on me. I saw him beating his son very cruelly and abusing his driver
I am not willing to follow that doctor’s instructions. I saw him driving through a red light more than once. How can I trust that he is careful in his prescriptions
I am not bothered about the doctor's personal life as long as he performs his work well

Duties of a Physician to Himself and to his Profession

A good doctor leaves his social problems at home. Home life whether good or bad has no impact on professional performance
