I feel chest pains but I don't think the doctor who diagnosed me was right

That is definitely a scam, honestly no doctor in the right mind would diagnose a patient without even checking for blood pressure or without any use of equipment, this just sounds to me like the doctor you encountered was just taking a wild guest and is only doing this for his own benefit, so you'd buy expensive medication for him to earn a huge amount of money, my advice to you would to definitely consider reporting him and getting out of there.
