Also, within reason, you trial treatments and monitor results as best you can. And you go to conferences and actually meet and talk to people that are going through the same, rather than rely on the anonymous postings on the interweb.
Not everyone who challenges their doctor is a raving middle class keyboard warrior amateur scientist. Some of us have pathology degrees, and have had to challenge their ingrained notions about who to trust when it comes to medicine.
The question is, what would you do if your child was suffering, and you met people who were getting positive results with a treatment that your doctor does not agree with?
In the world of autism, there are two types of doctors; those with autistic children and those without. Often the difference in attitude is remarkable, but maybe not so surprising if you take the time to actually think about it.

You'd think they were an idiot.
But if I was that client and came back with benchmark performance tests using nginx and nodejs vs tomcat and servlets I would expect the consultant to at least be aware of newer technologies and be able to advise accordingly.
Or if the consultant says, I've never heard of a cure for your problem, therefore one does not exist. So you might as well give up.
Which obviously would be fine for you and yours, but not for me and mine.

You always have the option of a 2nd opinion (don't you) if you don't agree with your doctor. Or your contractor

Personally I like clients who know a little about IT - they are easier to deal with(generally).

Our experience is that doctors (GP's I guess) have very little understanding of nutrition / tolerances / allergies.
With our son, once we were able to get control of his gut issues, his behaviour, communication and learning improved considerably.
