When you have rare or complicated medical problems it is time wasting and frustrating to have to keep going over old ground with different doctors and being wary of the reception you may get. I had one doctor who kept insisting that I must have a similar sounding but totally different disease. I was mid treatment and it was very distressing.
If you are attending for one off medical issues then it doesn’t matter too much who you see. Again, a named doctor may make different decisions because she/he is aware of your overall health and the implications it may have for treatment.
