They consult other doctors, and do research for a 'differential diagnosis', or a rare disease or disorder that most people do not go to as a first diagnosis.
This is what the entire series "House, MD" is based on.

They will usually refer you to a specialist or a scientist that studies certain infectious diseases. My boyfriend is a microbiologist who specializes in infectious disease- a lot of doctors send him patient files when they don't know what's wrong with a person.

Usually they refer them to a psychiatrist because if they can't find a diagnosis, it must be all in the patient's head. Doctor's hate to admit failure.
