Psychopaths and narcissists are over-represented in the medical world - Prof. Sam Vaknin

Watch the film “Semmelweis”. Narcissists and psychopaths are over-represented in the medical professions and as the prevalence of cluster B personality disorders is rising, this is becoming a major threat.

They deem themselves infallible

They confabulate

They never admit to ignorance and are resistant to learning

They never seek advice or even information

They are hypervigilant, defensive, and aggressive or passive-aggressive

They are vindictive

Patronizing, condescending attitude to patients, god complex

Regard every query as narcissistic injury, challenge to authority (fallacy)

They perceive themselves as godlike and therefore immune to the consequences of errors and choices

They are defiant, daring, and contumacious (for example, with regards to treatment protocols)

They are antisocial, even criminal

They are prone to conspiracism, confirmation bias, and superstitions

Gaslight in a fantasy space which is a cultlike guild

Solutions: multiple opinions, reliance on commonsense, experience of others, evidence-based practices (new discoveries takes 15 years to filter down to praxis), assertiveness, research. - Prof. Sam Vaknin
