You see this is where I wish I could write everything I know about this universe, but as the story is about Sherlock and John there are some things that got missed out. I think Helen's story would be so appropriate for what you've asked. At one point I wrote a piece which explained how she came to work for the Enclave. She was working at one of the other distribution centres with about ten other doctors. After Barbican and Weavers field distribution centres were blown up their centre was selected for the Enclave. Of the eleven doctors (including Helen) one wasn't there that day - having headed for the hills - one had been on an errand to Barbican and caught in the blast. Three flatly refused to go with the government car. Two went home to fetch their families and never showed up again. Helen, another woman and the Enclave's Oncologist got in one car while the fourth person got in another car which was going to make a stop at one of the other centres. That car got caught in a riot and although there were no bodies found in the burnt out car later no one knows what happened to the people in it or whether they managed to pick anyone up from the other centres. The woman who was with Helen and the oncologist was later found to be suffering from CN41 and unfortuantely died of a Loreslepin overdose, just leaving Helen and the oncologist (along with Jack and Tom as well but they were recrutied right at the beginning). Unfortunately this explanation was cut. This is basically the 'due to this and that' reason Tom gives for why there aren't many doctors at the Enclave.
Doctors did survive and although I have to say that most of the hospitals I've visited or worked in have usually been windowy buildings I do find the A&E departments are the most maze like. The trouble is that a lot of doctors would be split between those who would deny their profession and run for the hills and those that would try to help and get killed for their trouble. Remember they had to live throught he same chaos, riots, crashes, accidents, infections, diseases and bombings as the rest of the population except they were more likely to be in the middle of it.
Sorry, I seem to have written an essay. Anyway I'm glad you enjoyed it, even if you had to suspend your disbelief a little and I hope my explanation makes a little sense.
There is another reason why there are less doctors in London at least than you would have thought but I can't tell you because of spoilers. Wait and see.
