I'm not sure what you're asking.
Collegiality and relationships within medicine are not particularly affected. Medical respect for government systems CDC, NIH, etc were/are appropriately damaged.
I'll use my brother as an example. PhD in medical physics. Has led a department at a research hospital for 30 years. Before Covid (and even during the first few months of the pandemic), he believed the medical industry was "different" - was virtuous and uncorrupted in ways (or degrees) other industries were not. He no longer sees his industry that way.

I see attitudes like your brother's more as an outside issue. The problem is, medicine is complicated. The lay public (unlike your brother) does not generally have the background and/or ability to fully understand healthcare recommendations. So they are left to either trust their doc, or not. They have seen enough crap from the likes of Fauci, Birx, or Catherine O'Neal to warrant severe skepticism.
Inside, docs remain focused on quality of care and patients' best interest. That has not changed an iota. We see it in each other. JFWIW.
But patient trust in quality medical advice has been undercut.
