This is in the UK. A visit to the doctor doesn't cost anything.

I work in a hospital, seeing how things work I'm convinced that for anything that is not an emergency a patient which knows how to get information critically armed with an LLM can diagnose himself and identify a proper treatment much better than a specialist would do in a 15 minutes visit.

This is not to say the patient should not do important analytics to identify what the problem is, nor that he should not consult his medic before proceeding with any treatment or taking the diagnosis as correct. However, reviewing carefully what the medic says often reveals the medic was completely wrong. A patient has more time than a medic to take interest in his own disease and can then go to the medic and explain why he thinks an appropriate treatment would be a better one.

I mean, in my hospital if a relative of a medic has a problem in something not related to their specialty, they'd rather treat them themselves than have an expert do that.

And they'll just tell you to lose weight instead of trying to figure out what's wrong.
