If you say "There are one or more doctors that I need", it can
be true even if there are one or more doctors that you don't need.
I could bring you a doctor and you could say, "No, I don't need
this one; I need a different one". That's not the case with "I 
need a doctor, any doctor". If I bring you a doctor then, you've
got to need this doctor.
