So their argument goes: 'If you are destined to recover from this illness, whether you were to call in a doctor or not, you would recover; furthermore, if you are destined not to recover from this illness, whether you were to call in a doctor or not, you would not recoverand either one or the other is destined to happen; therefore it doesn't matter if you call in a doctor.'
