I think you don’t have your terminology straight. Pathologists do not see patients in offices for general medical reasons. Pediatricians, general practice, family practice and internal medicine physicians see the bulk of patients in their offices. Osteopathic physicians are, for the most part, interchangeable with allopathic (or regular) physicians.

Pathologists perform autopsies.

There are Osteopathic doctors and Medical doctors. The best way to find out how good a doctor is, would be to get his credentials and internship history. At the point where they perform private practice, D.O.’s and M.D.’s have had such similiar experience that they are interchangeable… on paper. Meet them in person and see who you are more comfortable with.
