Does the doctor watch you undress?

@agracier

I used Maine because it's a state I don't live in and I'm trying not to divulge my location on a largely fetish site, but it's not hard to find. You just have to look up your state's medical board and find their sexual misconduct rules.

Here's another one from Tennessee that has a little bit more leeway than Maine but is still similar.

My pediatrician never watched me undress but I did have to undress in front of my mom and brothers when they were in the room. We often overlapped our appointments so my mom didn’t have to go multiple times a year. Even tho it was only a few years ago they never offered us a gown so I was forced to wait in my briefs

When I googled "patient privacy to dress and undress sexual" I saw this (but didn't want to download whatever the whole thing was).

PDF Abuse of a Patient… A Clinical Perspective - Washington

Paragraph 1(g) states that not allowing a patient the privacy to dress or undress can constitute sexual misconduct.

By this the member is correct with what they are saying.

I wouldn't make something up about an issue affecting patient rights/dignity. If this were a roleplay board that'd be one thing, but I'm not going to put out bad information that could affect real patient interactions. I'm sure if you dig you'll find numerous other states with similar laws. I'll give a state with a similar law that I don't live in. Check out section 8 B.2 under sexual impropriety.

Yes it says it on that page. It's actually really a rule. Wow!: "deliberately watching a patient dress or undress instead of providing privacy for disrobing"

For all my physical checkups and sickness visits, the nurse that called my name in the clinic waiting room and escorted me down the hallways and throughout the clinic was the one who always told me undress to my underwear-shorts after I entered the examination room.

That's great that the doctors examined you so thoroughly. Looking at the whole body is a great way for the doctor to be able to spot any abnormalities on the skin. I think this is typically only done (examining the whole surface of the skin) by dermatologists.

Never. Generally, a nurse or aide provides an area behind a sliding curtain and leaves the room.

I can remember being at a pediatrician in the late 60s where the nurse would tell me to strip down to my underwear while she asked my step mother questions. I also remember later on at other exams where the nurse filled out forms while I undressed to my underwear or put on a gown. I also was in pre op once in the 80s where I was told to strip everything off and put on a gown and a nurse was in the room because she was going to shave me as soon as I was lying on the table. The only time recently was after a massage the therapist remained in the room while I got up and got dressed as she started changing the sheets on the table because now they always give you privacy to change at least where I live.

In every instance I've ever partially or fully disrobed for an exam, it's been without the presence of a doctor or nurse in the room. Most of the time it'll be between when the nurse finishes their paperwork and leaves before the doctor enters, but on rare occasion it'll be after the doctor has already entered, necessitating them to step out briefly.

Today, the doctors are so much in a hurry to get you out and the next pearson in, they don't have you undress and put a gown on. I have been to 2 urologists for multiple exams. All they seem to do is while sitting on their little stool, put some gloves on have me drop my pants and underwear to my ankles and examine me. For the prostat you turn, bend over the table and in seconds he's done. He hands you a box of Kleenex to clean up a bit and your done.

For surgery all three times I was instructed to remove everything, given bags for my clothes, told to put a gown on tied in the back and left alone.

After two of my major surgeries the nurse actually helped me dress and get ready. The first one I left with a catheter and leg bag. The second one I traded the catheter for two drains. The help was very much appreciated!

I'm already undressed when the doctor comes into the room.

My doctor tells me to undress and stays in the room with me while he washed his hands. I’m usually in only a jockstrap and my socks. He doesn’t mind at all. I’m usually naked at the end for the genital and rectal exam.

@Medfetplayer damn lucky doc!

My Urologist will tell me she needs to check me out now. I stand up she watches as i unbutton, unzip, and pull down my pants. She is still looking as i slide my underwear down. She never looks away. Guess she is waiting to exam my genitals, but she watches the whole time the whole strip process.

No and yes.

I've never had them stay for a physical, it's always been undress while they were out. But I was dressed when I had a problem with my scrotum and my doctor asked me to lower my pants and underwear so he could examine it and I did that in front of him.

That is so hot. That's like when I've gone in the hospital for a psych issue and the nurse watches me the whole time and hands me the hospital gown and pajama bottoms as I change.

Generally (not always) it is the nurse who can be watching me undress because she is the one who prepares me, then she gives me the instructions where to lie down and makes the previous preparations before the doctor enters the room,

In other words, the nurse does it.

Not completely, if it's something where I have to change into a gown she will step out, if it's something where she needs me to remove my shirt or pants to check on a specific orthopedic matter or to do a quick cyst check and I'm not being draped, then she'll stay in the room.

I've had my share of exams where I needed to strip completely. Until today, the doctor or nurse always left the room while I undressed and they returned later. Today I had a foley catheter removed. The young very attractive female nurse followed that procedure when she wanted to remove my foley catheter. After that, she asked me to get dressed and asked me to watch some training films on self catheterization. Once that was complete, she returned and we talked about self catheterization. We talked for a good 15 minutes. Then she said it was time to actually perform a self catheterization. She would do one on me and then she would watch me and supervise me self cathing. The plan made sense to me. What surprised me was she asked me to totally strip while she was still in the room. She watched me strip to be naked as a J bird and we talked while I stripped. She was completely professional as I undressed and also througout the training session. I was just totally naked throughout. It was kind of erotic for me as I had never stripped during a medical appointment with having the practitioner still in the room and actually watch me strip. I was totally naked with her for about 30 minutes, as there was some difficulty during the training session. So erotic for me.

Never had a doctor watch me undress

The only time a doctor has watched me undress was my first time with my adult doc at 22.

We talked basic stuff and then he asked me to get undressed except for my underwear as he washed his hands and wrote some stuff done, I had never experienced that before. I don’t think he was fully watching anyways as I took things off.

Everytime before that I was always in my underwear already when my doc came in which I was always thought a humiliating part too.
