This is the one thing I don’t like about some doctors and scientists: they think they know everything, and in doing so they become lazy and dismissive (or they only care about money and fame). They should always be curious, and always seek to find the next truth, no matter what the general consensus is in the community. Good on De La Mata for challenging the status quo.

    some doctors and scientists

    The person you are replying to very clearly did not mean all doctors and scientists.

    I took his comment to mean the people who accepted that tinnitus was not physical.

    Rarely, the sound may be heard by someone other than the patient by using a stethoscope, in which case it is known as "objective tinnitus". Occasionally, spontaneous otoacoustic emissions, sounds produced normally by the inner ear, may result in tinnitus.

    It's not ‘physical’ in most cases. Or rather, it's not acoustic but electric instead.

    It’s the same logic and immigrants are lazy and stealing all the benefits of society.

    That logic is: someone invented a stereotype and people ran with it instead of being curious and doing science
