Question

Answer

We say "to have a high opinion" or "to have a low opinion" of someone.  A high opinion of someone means you think of that person with respect, and you "hold him/her in high esteem".

The sentences both suggest the same thing: that doctors are not as respected today, compared to the respect they received in the past.
