People don’t usually have the same doctor for their whole life. So no matter how long you have been living with an illness, you do find yourself seeing people you have never met before and sometimes having weird experiences just through probability. No one is “symptom shopping” here, we’re just describing a common experience, which is that it’s a bit jarring when you have a health problem and the doctor you go to see for it doesn’t know how to help you with it.

I do get that. I mean your medical file gets ported to the new doctor. If he’s looking it up in front of you then it’s indeed a bit unprofessional.
