The pivot here is “but,” and the clue is that the doctor “failed to discuss any way of obviating (anticipating and preventing) damage.” Thus, the doctor went into great detail about only "supposed” good things about the treatment, and only benefits works. Diagnosis (determination of disease) and prognosis (forecast of medical outcome, chances of recovery) both relate to the medical theme, but neither fits in the blank. Mien (appearance, bearing) is unrelated.

The thought contrastor "but" divides the sentence into two fragments contributing contradictory positions. The second part states that the doctor failed to discuss how to prevent damage to auxiliary structures. Therefore he must have discussed successfully in detail about the opposite of preventative medication - namely, the benefits of treatment.
