Is it normal that i want to be a surgeon but i am scared of doctors?

Ok I am studying to be a surgeon, but I am scared of doctors people often tel me I should quit and study something else, I tell them I can handle seeing a cut open body, that doesn't disturb me, but they think it is odd that I am scared of doctors but I am training to be a surgeon, I have always wanted to be a surgeon even though I am scared of doctors, is this normal?

    Well, you're scared of doctors as a patient, not as a co-worker, I think, and that's actual very common among doctors, funnily enough! So you're fine!

    I wanted to be a surgeon because I loved the doctors.
