∙ 13y agoIt depends. Diagnoses are arrived through tests usually. The tests are ordered by whatever physician the person initiates treatment with (usually a primary care physician). Usually another physician will actually interpret the results of those tests. For biopsies, a pathologist can give a diagnosis by looking at tissue samples under the microscope. The patient never meets the pathologist. X-rays and CT Scans are read by a different type of doctor. If it's gynecology or cardiology-related (those are the two that come to mind) the actual ordering physician (especially in cardiology) will read the test and not another physician.
Once a diagnosis is made, the treatment is typically prescribed by the ordering physician, or a referral is made to another physician who specializes in that type of medicine.
