If they can't diagnose themselves they will see another doctor or go to hospital.

More:

There is an old saying that, "If a doctor treats himself, he has a fool for a patient."

Most doctors will treat themselves for minor aches, pains, colds and flu, but beyond that, they know they need an objective opinion for the best diagnostic and treatment choices. They can't do that for themselves or their families without being subjective, so many doctors have a partner or physician friend who will treat them and their families unless the care is emergent or urgent, then they will usually get treatment like anyone else would at an emergency room.
