My experience working with several MEs, including guys at the top of the food-chain, from Sterling and elsewhere, is that they are generally committed to great customer service, are intent on giving the client (the artist, producer, or whomever) the results desired, will routinely offer several versions of the master, and are quite willing to revisit a master until they get it "right."

I also think comparing mastering engineers to physicians (as in the original post) is hyperbolic.
