The intention is to say that doctors are too quick to provide patients with medicine when another course of treatment might be better for the patient, but the wording is off. Perhaps:
The doctors here are all too ready to provide patients with medicine.
or:
The doctors here are all too eager to provide patients with medicine.
RonBee,

The doctors are ready to pass out pills
In an effort to cure their patients' ills!
