Family doctors can’t give a true diagnosis anyway – have your family doc REFER you to someone who knows how to test for it and rule out other things – or look for things that can go along with ADD.
Family doctors are more for “internal medicine”. I’d not trust them to go it alone, but would agree they need to be “in the loop” as they will know the impact any drugs or medicines would have on your body.
IMO, you need a psychologist at the very least. I was pushed up the chain to a neuro-psychologist and wow, what a battery of tests – and I learned more in those several hours with him than from any other sources, plus, he built upon things I’d learned online.
