[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is making me wonder about every doctor, male or female, that I know. Did they do this!?

I'm glad I didn't know about this before the surgery I had recently. Non-gynological, thank goodness.

I have almost always chosen women doctors for myself and kids, but for specialists, I have had some men. My current cardiologist is excellent and took precautions I hadn't even thought to ask about - for my first exam with him he brought a nurse in, who just quietly stood against the wall to be witness. I have no idea if it is legally required or not, but I appreciated it.[/quote]

Had a conversation with hubby (who is a surgeon) and some of his surgeon friends.  No one had known of this practice in the OR, where they had unfettered access to touch, grope, feel a woman.  When I mentioned this, they were quite surprised and shocked.  They said the only time they had "access" to look/touch at a female or male in such manner was if there were volunteers (note: not patients) who knowingly permitted it but they said this was few and far.  FWIW, hubby and his friends are not OBGYNs so I cannot comment on what transpires there.[/quote]

I'm sure your DH wouldn't tell you about any sexual assaults he was involved in on the job. Lol[/quote]

I swear you women are off your rockers!  I'm all #metoo and all that but reading this thread, I realize how many man-hating bitches there are on DCUM.[/quote]
