They care about your daughters but they care about their children too. If they do not fill in electronic records they will have to stay after work. Many doctors have to work at home until 1-2AM to keep up with recordkeeping.
On the other hand, healthcare administrators who demand doctors spend no more than 15 minutes per patient AND fill pages and pages with summaries of visits really do not care about your daughters even a tiny bit.

I can certainly attest to this, from my own experiences growing up (in the 90's). My father is a doctor, and I distinctly remember him spending most of his evenings in his home office doing paperwork. I asked him why he didn't do it at the office, and he said that many of his colleagues did... But as a result, they didn't get home from work until much later. (and he was already getting home just barely in time for dinner)
