  What do you consider "basic medical knowledge"?

  Way to many times I've seen parents take their kid to the doctor and nothing was actually wrong that needed a doctor's attention. >
  
  Better safe than sorry honestly, if one can afford the luxury of healthcare that is. >
  
  This is why wait times are so long. Dumb people seeing doctors when they don’t need to be. >
  
  My parents had me at the doctor's a little too often in my opinion now that I'm an adult, so I understand where you're coming from because I'm sure there were people that needed that doctor's time more than I did.
  I don't really blame them though because often they took me not because they thought I needed an antibiotic or even a real diagnosis, but because they're jobs required doctor's notes for days off. 
  Which meant if they had to stay home because I was too sick for school, but it was just like the flu, we had to go to the doctor's office so the doctor would agree I was too sick for school and needed to stay home, and write a note saying so. It is a waste of everyone's time, but in their case it really came down to bad corporate sick time policies.
