[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you expect to happen when you go into labor on a night when one of the male partners is on call? It is not realistic to expect a female doctor to come in on her off day to accommodate your gender preference. Instead you will be taking whatever doctor the hospital provides. [/quote] When I was delivering, a resident came in all upset and told my female ob/gyn that there was a husband demanding a female doctor for his delivering wife. My doctor told the resident that the husband's preference was not to be accommodated and that a doctor is a doctor. I told her she could go to the other person and I would accept help from another, but she was the only person from my practice on duty and she did not want to do that. I am mentioning this because you should come to terms with this now. Otherwise there may be spillover effects you won't even be aware of. Thank you for being proactive.[/quote]
