There are a variety of reasons:
1) They may have had a bad experience in the past and not want to repeat it.
2) The may be afraid of what the doctor will find. This is part of denial.
3) It may be a cultural issue.
4) There may be economic barriers. (They feel they can't afford it.)
5) It could be a religious issue.
6) The may be crazy or foolish. (This is the least likely. Most people who you might think would fall into this category probably fall into one of the previous ones.)

Many people do not have insurance nor the money to go to the doctor. So, they go online hoping to find a cheap natural fix. When it gets bad enough, or too bad and nothing will fix it, then they finally cave in and go into dept for their health. It's really sad that Americans do not have a better health system for people without insurance.

They are afraid or simply can't afford to.
