In the states, this is an issue with substance abuse. Depending on the state, physicians can put their licenses and/or hospital privileges in jeopardy if they seek help. Every time I renew my license I have to swear that I haven't been diagnosed with a substance abuse disorder.

Replying to @gorskon @AlastairMcA30
I can see how a physician with a substance abuse disorder might be reluctant to seek help, in order not to have to check "yes" on the addiction question box on his next application to renew his medical license.
