Having a female chaperone in the room for a physical exam on a guy

I have a female PCP. I have had this happen a couple of times. Once with the chaperone in the room for the whole exam and once or twice when they called in the chaperone at the end for the male exam. Some men would not want this but I kind of like it..... part of my medfet I guess. So , I would like to hear from guys who have had a female doctor use a chaperone of either sex for a complete physical exam on a man.

I had chaperones called in on few occassions. The doctor was female usually would go find a nurse right before my genital exam. Once she called someone I think it was a girl from the office area. Guess it was quickiest person she could find.

When I had a female PCP (wish I still did) she called in female chaperones at the point of my GU and rectal exams. Kinda liked it too. 😉

Not a chaperone but an intern. I was seeing this urologist for a circumsiciom surgery when oh surprise, he had a young female intern. She saw everything and the doctor was explaining to her as he was doing his exam.

Since I have no problem with nudity in front of doctors it was no big deal.

I got asked to chaperone once. I was working in the ER and a female ER Dr was about to do a rectal exam

Occasionally, my company contracted with a female doctor for our annual employment physicals. Whenever a female had the contract, she would call in one of the nurses to chaperone the genital and rectal portion of the exam. The company only had female nurses staffing the medical unit that I ever saw. When it came time, the nurse would hold the drape up between herself and me while standing behind me. The doctor would then instruct me to lower my underwear and perform her various exams. It would appear that the nurse would go out of her way to give the appearance of not “looking” while the doctor did her work. I felt like it was weird for the nurse to hold the drape between us the way she did. There was never a chaperone when the doctor was male. Interestingly, the company went through many doctors while I was with the company but always had the same three nurses on staff.

Never had this happen, in the military, or civilian life. Guess they don't care about modesty too much in the military though.

When I go to the dermatologist there is always a young lady in the room entering the data in a computer. She sees everything the doctor does.

At the dermatologist, seems common to have another person, usually female, entering the dermatologist notes during a skin exam.

At the urologist, having the medical assistant or nurse (typically female) present during procedures, like a cystoscopy, and subsequent genital/rectal exam seems like a moot point when she already prepared you by sterilizing your genitals prior to the procedure. At that point not so much a chaperone as someone assisting with the procedure.

My dermatologist requires a medical assistant in the room during the exam. She sits at the desk so can't really see anything during the genital exam because I am on a gyno like chair facing away from her. She does get to see my bare chest when I lower the gown for the back/buttocks exam.

The only time anything close to this ever happened with me was when I was young and the doctor required a parent in the room.

Three female doctor/PAs have examined me intimately and none called in a nurse or chaperone. The most recent a few months ago. Most offices here have a sign in the exam room stating you can request a chaperone and one will be provided. Several specialists (dermatologists, orthopedics, any ophthalmologists) have assistants to take notes for exams, but they aren’t there as chaperones.

If a female doc calls in a chaperone I assume it’s to protect herself from either unwanted advances from the patient or to protect against false complaints about inappropriate touching. My wife’s gyno oncologist has the sign in her exam rooms (may be the clinics poloicy) and I think she only treats women. The office could also be used by other male docs.

I’ve had mixed experiences, and it really just depends on the provider.

The woman DO I saw in my early 20s would never call a chaperone, but did a genital exam at ever visit.

The urologists I’ve seen never have a chaperone, but almost always have had an intern or student in on the visit.

The women PAs I see now never have me get undressed for a physical, so don’t regularly see me naked. The few times I’ve been in specifically for a genital/pelvic concern, it’s been 50/50. The visit starts alone with them, and when it comes time to drop my pants for the exam they will ask “do you want me to get a chaperone?” To which I reply “I don’t need one, it’s up to you.” Some of the PAs will then go fetch a tech or MA then to stand awkwardly in the room, while other will glove up and do the exam. It’s always interesting when they get a chaperone though, because everyone there knows what is about to happen when they come back in the room as the rest of the visit is done. As soon as they come back it’s wash hands, glove up, and out come the dick and balls. Some of the chaperones will look away and other will watch.

Interestingly, the testicular ultrasounds I have gotten, which are very intimate, have almost always been alone or rarely with students accompanying.

I have had many different chaperones over the years and in the 80s it was customary to use anyone that was available such as a receptionist or other office worker and 99% of the chaperones were female and on the younger side and that is still the case today as they often use a medical assistant now and its usually women just starting out. I can remember having an STD test at the small college I was at by a female doctor with her appointment setter a female student looking on. I also remember having a testicular ultrasound later with a tech in her 40s and a young female office worker watching while being called a "chaperone". I had erections at both times.

I now have a female PCP I am comfortable with. On my first physical with her she asked if I wanted a chaperone and I told her no, that I did not need one.

I have only had the experience of a chaperone being present in the exam room once during an examination. This was a number of years ago in an office I was sent to for a preemployment exam. The doctor was a middle aged Caucasian male who kept his female nurse in the room throughout the exam. It really added a lot to the anxiety and embarrassment I felt during the exam and was terrible to go through but has given me tremendous pleasure thinking back about it over the years since it occurred. I do not know how others feel about it, but I find it embarrassing for staff members in the doctor's office to know what I have been through just because they know why I am there and what the doctor's routine is, but to have someone present to witness the proceedings and actually hear the doctor instruct me and see me submit is incredibly humiliating. Not to mention the fact that this particular female nurse actually watched the examination and got an unobstructed view of my genitalia and my anus since she positioned herself to have a full view of my body.

I've had female nurses or med-techs who were assisting with various procedures I've had over the years but have never been fortunate enough to have a female whose only function was to observe what was going on. There are signs prominently displayed in the exam rooms though that I have a right to ask for a chaperone at any time. But if it's a male doctor part of the fun has already been ruined. And if it's a female doctor it's unnecessary.

After college a female PA gave me a physical. When it was time for the genital exam, she asked if I had recently had sex without using protection. If so, I might need and STD test. I told her I hadn't, and she said that meant I didn't need to get tested. Not sure what the test would have entailed, but I was a bit interested. As was, she gloved up, asked me to drop my shorts and briefs. Standing to my side, she reached around and really quickly felt both of my testicles, then it was over. There was no discussion of a chaperone at all, though I would have been up for it.

More recently during a skin check I mentioned a small spot on my penis. The appointment was almost over, but the doctor asked me to let her have a look at it. I went behind a curtain, lowered my pants and boxers to mid thigh, and laid down on a table. She then came over, pulled on gloves, and looked at my penis with a dermoscope. While she was looking at me, the nurse in the room poked her head around the edge of the curtain, staring at my dick. Sadly she asked me to move my penis into the proper position. Since she was wearing gloves, I'd hoped she might have to touch it.

I'm yet to have that distinct experience at any of my exams. I've been seen by three different female NPs and one female derm PA to this point and it's always been a 1:1 thing. One of my NPs barely did any examination either, just mostly lab work and meds. Two of them performed hernia checks and genital exams and, to my (at the time) horror resulted in one chub and one full stiffy. I've never full stiffied at the dermatologist but I've definitely chubbed quite noticeably to me (probably not to her). That's been the most intimate one, though, because no other doctor has had to stare me eye to ass.

I see a female dermatologist every year for my skin exam. She always uses a female chaperone while looking me over. I'm undressed and in a gown but I have to stand so she can look at my backside. She usually lowers the gown while I'm lying on the table to look at my groin and genitals and the female chaperone is sitting there adding notes to my medical records.

I had to have my prostate checked this morning , the doctor was a nice female, that is what I wanted , I thought I may as well have some fun with it .She brought in the receptionist , as a chaperone this morning , the receptionist stood and watched me get a rectal exam . The exam was a digital rectal prostate exam , I have to admit I enjoyed it, her fingers were nice and skinny .The problem is I can tell very few people .

You are one lucky guy

Ten years ago, with a previous doctor, she performed the full yearly check up without a chaperone. This included me standing and bending over the table for her to perform a DRE.

My current primary care doctor is also a woman. She does the genital inspection with just us in the room. But when it comes to the prostate check and DRE she calls in a chaperone. They have been other women from the office both times. This doctor prefers to have my lying on my side, with one knee pulled up towards my chest. Both times I was facing the wall, not the chaperone, during the procedure.

I've been in various scenarios at different exams in the past. With chaperones and without. Two that stick out that were weird in their own way.

One time the doctor just stopped the exam and left the room. I had no clue what was going on. She returned just as I was figuring out the exam was over and I needed to get dressed and leave? However she returned with a girl from the front desk who walked in and looked like she was ready to find out what the issue was. The doctor explained she was going to chaperone the genital examination. The front desk girl backed up against the wall, almost in horror. The doctor asked me to raise the gown to my chest. As I did the front desk girl let out a gasp and turned and faced the door, defiantly with a look of horror on her face. I think she didn't fully understand why she was called into the exam room?

The other one that sticks out was when the doctor said she doesn't normally do any genial exams and told me she would require a chaperone to witness the exam. The nurse returned to the room and was told by the doctor to wait next to the desk in the corner of the room. The doctor then had me stand and turn away from the nurse's line of sight as she performed her visual inspection. She wore new gloves but kept her hands folded in front of her. I noticed movement on the side and turned my head to see the nurse ever so discreetly move around the desk, while bending over to see the front side of my body. The doctor said I could lower the gown and told me to get dressed as she stood up and left the room. The nurse stayed and walked in front of me to watch me remove the gown, standing there naked, and then getting dressed. The doctor came back into the room and yelled for the nurse to leave the room at once.

Why not? I'd much rather have a woman stare at my dick than another man.

Not for a physical exam but, for dermatologist yearly mole check. The nurse brings me back to the room and goes over the basic information. She advises to "strip to your underwear and put on a gown". I just do as I am told without the gown. The doc enters and then a little while later the nurse comes in to take pictures and scribe notes.

For actual exams, I have never had a chaperone except for my Mom or once with a older brother in the room. That stopped in Jr. High.

My dermatologist had a female assistant who records the notes, I guess that’s a chaperone.

Interested to read Budymac's comment. I had a receptionist called into the doctor's while I had a full physical. The doctor was from India and newly arrived with her husband who actually owned the practice. Her English wasn't that good so she had the receptionist read out the sections on the form I needed signing while she performed the examination. The exam was very thorough including genital and rectal and what made it worse was the fact the the receptionist was a neighbour of my parents. I was about 22 at the time, the receptionist was mid to late 30s.

I have never had a chaperone for a physical exam, no matter the providers sex. I have had chaperones in most of my dermatology skin exams. The first three dermatologists that I went to were male, the last two that I've been to have been female. What's funny/ ironic/ odd, is that the male providers are the only ones to have used a chaperone to examine me. Neither of the female providers have used one.

One of the chaperones was just that. She entered the room, leaned on the door, stared at me, and didn't move until she was no longer needed. Didn't assist the PA in any way, didn't take notes or scribe anything, didn't even speak. What's funny is she was dismissed just before the provider lowered my underwear to inspect my butt. I would have thought that if you're using a chaperone, that would be the part of the exam you want them to witness. That PA was very weird and sketchy however, so that just added to it. I only went to him once.

One doctor had a scribe with him for everything he did. She was always present. She would enter and introduce herself, set the computer on the counter by the door and type everything that happened. She would occasionally turn her head and watch the exam as it all happened.

The third dermatologist had a medical assistant chaperone the exam, but she did exactly that, she assisted the entire appointment. She was the one that called me back, roomed me, and instructed me to undress. She returned with the doctor and scribed the appointment and exam. She took pictures of problem spots and documented everything. She would assist the doctor and myself with positioning, my gown, and draping/ un-draping. She asked myself and the doctor questions during the exam and my doctor would quiz her also. It was always a learning experience for the assistant. Sometimes that was annoying, but usually it was interesting and entertaining. She would see most things the doctor would see (however, from a different perspective) but it didn't feel quite as awkward and embarrassing since she had an actual purpose for being there. This was the doctor I went to for years until he dropped my insurance carrier, so I had multiple repeat assistants for exams and procedures.

I'd be a bit wtf if it was just somebody from the front desk brought in to witness. Although some of them are early id 20's and very attractive. Not sure they would be thrilled to have to witness the Dr sticking a finger up my arse either.

I've been offered a chaperone only once for an intimate medical exam which I declined.
