What is the correct form to use in this sentence "I went to the doctor this afternoon" or "I had gone to the doctor this afternoon"?

They are both correct, but the first can be used far more freely and would be the normal in any case except for the explanation of a subsequent event. Also, note that the second sentence is more likely to be found with a “that” than a “this.”

In sum -

Simple historic/simple past, usable alone: "I went to the doctor this afternoon"

Past perfect, to explain or relate something transpiring later then the event under discussion (eg, in response to the question, “Why were you so fixated on your health right then?”) "I had gone to the doctor that afternoon."

Here the original ‘this’’ would be fine were the question to be asked the same day as the doctor’s visit.

As a general rule in English, using forms marked for aspect as well as tense (this past perfect, the future perfect, the present progressive etc.) results in a more restricted, but not necessarily less frequent, set of contexts in which they can be deployed. Learners of English need to learn to restrict perfective forms to contexts where they relate to something prior just as they must limit the progressive forms to ongoing or intended actions - English tense and aspect usage is not very hard once one learns to do that.
