I am just amazed at the claptrap posted here.

I know physicians at teaching hospitals who make it clear that residents WILL be involved in the care of the patient and if the patient is not comfortable with their involvement s/he should find another doctor. How exactly does the next generation of doctors get trained if patients forbid residents and medical students to participate in their care?[/quote]

The point is CONSENT explicitly to multiple pelvic exams while unconscious. You are just okay with people doing whatever they want with your body? [/quote]

Multiple pelvic examinations is nonsense. How many residents do you think are in an OR at the same time? Usually just one .........

But a patient is entitled to refuse examination by a resident and a doctor is entitled to tell that patient to find another physician/hospital. Let me repeat: how exactly does the next generation of doctors get trained if patients forbid residents and medical students to participate in their care?

You do realize that a woman can get medical services at a non-teaching hospital and if she does that, the problem is solved.[/quote]

You have no idea what you are talking about
1. there may also be med student involved so that more than one person
2. there may be other residents
3. sometimes you dont have the option to not go to a teaching hospital
4. so i guess your saying anything goes for the sake of teaching!

Okay great- lets just have doctors do whatever they want just to "learn" and be "taught." They could easily learn on CONSENTING females and standardized patients. OR they could ask clearly and make sure the patient knows what will happen and who to call for compensation for any damages done down there by untrained med students

You really are an ignoramus. I have worked in teaching hospitals and I know what I am talking about.

If a city is large enough to have a teaching hospital, you can be sure there are non-teaching hospitals as well. If the care a patient needs is only available at a teaching hospital then examinations by residents goes with the territory.

Also, hard as it may be to believe, your vagina is not that prized possession that residents and medical students are longing to delve into, especially during child birth or during surgery.
