Verify for myself? I am a woman. I also work in healthcare. I know how frustrating it can be. However, the vast majority of doctors who I know (which I’d imagine is probably a few hundred more than the average person) do actually care about women’s health. There is absolutely a great deal more research that is needed and more work to do to reduce health disparities, but many physicians today are actively engaged in that work. The research is happening. It is slow and it will take a long time, but it is happening.
A handful of people being somewhat decent doesn’t change the medical reality for women across the globe no matter how much you want some small progress to do that. Sorry.
And nobody should be expected to ignore their own healthcare reality just because some people are vaguely trying to be better in a way that has zero impact on anyone but that niche research group.

Ok, do they study those things and apply those findings to actual healthcare?
No? They still barely pay lip service to half the population?
Cool. Handy.
Many of them do, yes, but it sounds like nothing anyone says will change your mind.
Reality would, but hasn’t. So, yeah “nothing”.
