The pathologist simply reports the lab findings. The doctor has to interpret those results to determine how it correlates to the patient's symptoms and then makes a diagnosis and prescribes a treatment.

Most doctors do not interpret test results, that is the province of the technical side - Pathologists including Histologists , Cytologists , Haematologists etc

I didn't know another doctor( pathologist) besides your specialist was involved in the interpretation of tests and the suggesting of treatments.
