Could someone please revise this sentence
Unlike doctors and lawyers (who alongside comprise the stereotypical triumvirate of skilled professionals) who interact with patients and clients on a regular basis, there is a disconnect between engineers and society.
I know there's a lot wrong
Thank You

@lorimiller1235,
My .02c shot.

Doctors and lawyers who interact with patients and clients seem to have a more intimate connection than between engineers and society.

@contrex,
I think using words like "stereotypical triumvirate" is misused here; extra wording that doesn't add to the sentence.

Maybe, "Amongst skilled professionals like doctors and lawyers who interact with patients and clients on a regular basis, there seems to be some distance between engineers and society."
