My female doctor recently retired and when I went in the new guy, a thirty something tall dark and handsome man walked in I about blushed. Guy looks like he came out of a TV medical drama or something. As time has gone on, I'm happy with his care and how well he listens but somethings like post surgery weight issues after thyroidectomy I find embarrassing to discuss. I'm thinking about finding a new female GP. Now I've had male obgyn's before - older and younger - but none I was attracted to. Personally I just feel more comfortable with female doctors - mostly since becoming a mother myself a few years ago. It's hard to explain. I'm not sure it would 'condition' me not to want to do anything though, that logic is a bit hard to swallow.
