Was my doctor right to say this?

I've had concerns about symptoms for a while now due to smoking. She didn't want to look into it. She said "You've only been smoking 20 years, you don't have cancer"

A lot of what doctors tell you convince your subconscious of certain things. If she tells you not to worry, then your body will keep fighting it off, but if she checks and there is a lump or something you may swing the other way. Positive thinking is important.
