I have a hatred of hospitals and do not associate them with good feelings. Perhaps if I visited them as often when I was well as when I am sick then my opinion would be neutral. Doctors are, however, generally viewed positively since their job is to diagnose and treat the reason for me being in hospital. There might well be a reason to hate a specific doctor and I see examples of unprofessional doctors almost daily in the UK newspapers where the patient has died. They are certainly not infallible and, in China if not elsewhere, there is always the option to select your doctor and to get a second opinion.
