YesSeventh-day Adventists certainly do believe in medical care. They have a worldwide health care system which serves not only their members but is also available to the public. Jehovah's Witnesses are one group which is against certain forms of medical care such as blood transfusions, but Seventh-day Adventists disagree with them on many topics, including this one.
In medicine, women prefer to have a woman overseeing their medical care, and men prefer male doctors. There are no religious objections to blood transfusions, however Hindu people believe in reincarnation with a cause and effect relationship.
