There are situations where the reverse occurs. Both I and relatives were told many times by our primary physician that we were perfectly okay, but upon insisting we were directed to specialists who diagnosed us as not okay. An example is when I visited several doctors before I was diagnosed with autoimmune disease, or when my primary care physician gave me eye meds that made my eye worse, and the eye doctor was complaining that they told them many times not to try and treat eye conditions cos they're not specialists and these wrong prescription stuff often happens.
