very fair statement to me,
I saw a general doc for shoulder pain, was guided to an orthopedist, the general doc wasnt equiped to see that it was bursitus.
I had knee pain, went to a general practitioner, he sent me to an orthopedist, they found was what wrong.
I partially tore my achille's tendon, didnt waste my time, went straight to an orthopedist.
