I’m a founder with a failed startup behind me. It’s not like I can hide that.

If I make a mistake filing my company’s taxes or similar and it’s caught by the authorities, that will be part of the public record.

For me it’s a bit hard to understand that I should be subjected to immensely much more public scrutiny than a doctor. Why? I thought they had so much responsibility, not me.

At least here in Sweden the problem with the medical board is that they are doctors and will only revoke a license for truly egregious violations of ethical standards / law. They also look at one case at a time, so a doctor can have tens of cases representing a staggering level of unprofessionalism in total, but still keep their license.
