If you could spend even a week in a clinic in Darfur, or the hundreds of other places where health care is offered in the 3rd world, you would realize how biased the Western view on medical care is. When the health needs are so basic by so many people, most western medicine is irrelevant--Not to say we can't help. But we come offering a high level of care, when the people need just the basics (I can't find a word that describes anything lower than the term).
For many for example, where the biggest medical need is clean water, we are setting up abortion clinics. Are there any doctors without borders who can comment on this?
