This is correct.
Generally, when a PCP is suspicious of something based on a physical exam, blood work or patient narrative, they either order tests to see what's going and/or they or refer you to a specialist who takes it from there to do the diagnosis
The big thing is to seek medical advice quickly when something is not right.
Also adding that some cancers are detectable by screening tests, one example is Cologuard which indicates the possibility of colon cancer which calls for future examination via colonoscopy.
All the best
