50% of doctors are by definition below the average.
In reality, roughly 3-10% are good, the rest just go by standard guidelines only and/or punt you off to someone else.

What's the difference between mean and median in a Gaussian distribution?
Looking forward to your contributions to mathematics.
Are we talking about grades? Honestly when I see "50% of doctors are below average" I intuitively think of some other metric, such as the correct/incorrect diagnosis ratio, or the number of people that died because of their errors. Maybe it's just me but their uni (?) grades never comes to my mind.
