zorrocat, based on what Dr. J actually said on the whole, I don’t think he wasn’t taking it seriously at all.
He’s a doctor, he’s looking at it from a provider perspective, how common it is, and maybe try approaching it from a different tack (since ScatterKat’s anxiety about it is causing herself harm, she needs applicable advice, not legal outrage).
“Darnit, Jim! He’s a doctor, not a policeman!” 
Doctor/Police. Those are two different hats. Doctors don’t go around looking for ways to pin crimes on people like coppers do. They also don’t go around being outraged at stuff like us laypeople do. They look for solutions. And after 4, 6, 8+ years of formal education, I sort of expect them not to react all “OMG!”
As for my opinion (because we all always seem to have one, heh) when I was reading this, I was thinking “Why isn’t he on his own medication on the up-and-up? Get him an appointment, too, if you share insurance.” I know it’s easier said than done. But that was my innate stance.
