Jonah, you may be right that doctors are, on average, going to be bad writers, but they have a better track record than insurance salesmen, who have only Wallace Stevens to claim. Stevens so loved insurance, as a matter of fact, that he turned down a tenured position at Harvard to remain a vice president of The Hartford! And he did have an actuarial mind for a poet, since he wrote the immortal line: “Let be be finale of seem.” (Think about it.)
