I guess they should just be in debt up to their eyeballs to pay for all the years of education required to be allowed to practice medicine and just give their services away for less than required to cover their costs.
Besides, in today's litigious society, since there is always a significant risk of lawsuit, there is a legitimate need to earn more to encourage them to take the risk of losing it all.
And when you doubt the care for human health, the reason that many doctors have such terrible "bedside manner" is that they are very concerned with treating/curing human health issues, but not always so good at dealing with other aspects of the person, or being "personable." They are not being called to the vocation of pastor/shepherd. They are highly-skilled technicians. Not entertainers or social workers.
