I dont think you GI doc is skeptical. The breath test is a standard clinical test. You can read about it here. However, it is not unusual for GI docs to tell patients to try drinking milk or eat fruits high in fructose and see how they react. The patient can usually tell within a few hours if the have problems with lactose or fructose.
