That's because they will be thinking that it's perfectly normal, will correct untreated naturally soon, and those treatments that do exist are mainly designed to extract large quantities of money from over-worrying parents who have too much of it, and are unnecessary.

There are rare cases where treatment is appropriate, but if your GP isn't worried enough to refer, then quit worrying and rejoice that your baby is so healthy and thriving that your main thing to worry about isn't really actually a problem at all.
