Many doctors are unscrupulous and days of "Do No Harm" are often discarded. Check every doctor on HEALTH.GRADES.com
My personal experience is that Medicare Advantage plans through UHC & FL Blue have the best doctors. All mine are. Research everything else you mentioned by Googling WebMD cat scans, etc. Because of insurance company's significantly lower doctor payments, doctors need to earn more money & prescribe unnecessary tests. Also unnecessary RX because they get kickbacks from drug companies. That's why they have a Bazillion free samples to hand out to patients, many of which are not needed. Example statin drugs to patients whose cholesterol is only 200, 205 & the list goes on & on.
