As a Parent you have to follow you GUT instinct. That is the one thing that will help get you through challenging situations.
If this doesn't seem right to you, find another Pediatrician for another opinion.
Look at the size of the over all family members, did they start out small? One doctor says she is ok. The excessive exposure doesn't seem good for such a small child.
Good Luck with your decision.
