Who should arrange the inspections? -- Realtor or Myself?

This is going to reveal just how much of a "newbie" I am, but: 

Who should schedule and arrange the home inspections? 

I would think that a realtor is incentivized to choose inspectors who are less likely to reveal home defects, if their interest is in the commission. Moreover, I would think the home inspectors who have a relationship with my realtor will be (either unconsciously or consciously) motivated to help their friend gain his/her commission. 

Or, am I just being paranoid?
