I know ya'll are men but every comment so far has been small, warm hands to do a yearly exam. What about the rest of the time? Yeah, who cares.
I have had a female doc for over 20 years, civilian provider at a military TOC. I moved to follow her when she opened the new one. 1. She knows my body, inside and out. Every new thing is an addition not a totally new workup. 2. I like her crew, all nice people who also know me.
Starting new you need to find someone you can be totally honest with, how much you really, drink, smoke or dip. She knows my home life, HX and more and I work with her as a peer, she respects my opinions, ideas. I personally think that is best for me because I like to be involved , not just sit and wait for RX and take as directed.
