In all honesty, you are more likely to get more attention from an NP or a PA than a doctor. That's not an attack, but most doctors are about quantity versus quality so they are about getting in and out of the room with you and turning over as many patients as they can.
Secondly, a big part of medicine is experience. A NP with 20 years under their belt actual practice is going to be more qualified than an MD with let's say 5 years or less of experience. In medicine experience is king.

An MD that is 5 years out of residency is about the peak of quality medical care. They still remember the rare stuff from training, but also have enough experience to know how to handle the things they can’t teach you in a textbook.
A NP is often getting advice from other NP’s from a Facebook group.

I would take an MD with 10 years of experience over one with 30 years of experience any day of the week, and I work in healthcare
