The most common complaints I hear are (1) cost of education/training and (2) cost of malpractice insurance.

I actually seriously looked into medical school but was put off by the economics of it. I would not have broken even financially until I was in my 50s (and that's assuming no nationalization of healthcare). I imagine it's worse today (more expensive, takes longer to recoup investment and more risky with respect to potential nationalization).
