Medical opinion will remain one of the last frontiers of LLMs. There so many critical factors that are inappropriate for them. They cannot perform a clinical exam, they have to collect the needed exams and most importantly a life might be at stake (OK, you cannot die from a shoulder problem but you can become handicapped forever).
All that said, as a doctor I am totally open and even happy when a patient refers they took advice from AI. I explain the holes of their reasoning and integrate it with mine. It helps rather than hurts the patient-doctor connection.
