Hot take - the private doctors tell you they are great but the public doctors can often be spectacular because their motives are not primarily economic.

For example, the absolute best diagnosticians in Houston are at the public hospital primarily serving Medicaid and Harris Health patients. Super evidence based, order tests for differential diagnosis not to make $$. Passionate about what they do. In a unexplained emergency my doctor friends would go there to be diagnosed and then the fancy privates to be treated.
