Because, reading what others have said on here it would appear that the more mobile doctors aren't too thorough with their checks.
That would suit you if you just wanted to get your licence renewed with the minimum of fuss (which is what most of their customers want) but I looked on it as a personal MOT, therefore worth paying a bit extra for.
As I have never used a mobile doctors service I have absolutely no idea if they are more or less thorough.

So actually you're not in a position to compare really are you?
It's not only the mobile type doctors that may be efficient or inefficient but so can any doctor from any practice anywhere in the country
My own experience, Doctors on Wheels:
Young lady (very pleasant) could not understand the D4 form, I helped to translate.
Blood pressure taken 3 times with different dates entered on the D4
The doctor turned up at the end, checked the D4, stamped and signed it.
I 'know' I'm fit to drive............is everyone that takes that medical............?
Next time I'd rather have a medical by someone that has treated me............. my GP, as @Clarky says - an MOT
The reason I used DoW was the speed at which they could do it - within a week
A 'medical' on its own cannot surely be the only decider on fitness to drive - a refresher driving test would make more sense
