I had the almost opposite experience when I fractured a bone in my hand (it was a minor bone chip).
The tech at the immediate care facility saw it, but my ortho didn't when he reviewed it on a follow-up. I had to point out the bone and where it was before my ortho saw it. His response was basically "Oops" followed by removal of the temporary cast/sling and replacing all of that with a reinforced removable brace (which was awesome, because I could easily shower).
I broke my hand after dumping my bicycle taking a corner too fast on a training ride (I was doing around 25 mph) and losing traction under my rear tire. Rode home about 5 miles on that broken hand...
