Who examines nurses, female doctors?

Just thinking out loud here: Have always wondered if nurses get examined by one of the male doctors they work for at their practice? For that matter, do female doctors spread their legs in front of one their male colleagues at the office where they work? They're all professionals, but to an outsider it might seem a little awkward, which makes me wonder if these women opt to go elsewhere for this intimate examination. Anyone know anything about this?

I am not a nurse or a doctor. I was a phlebotomist and an ER administrator in my past. I did not go to doctors I worked with, however I did pass out at work once while working in the ER and wound up getting examined, intimately, by the attending. Turns out my (ex)husband had given me chlamydia which turned into PID. So not only did I have the 'joy' of having to spread for a doctor I worked with, I had the additional joy of him learning I had an STI.

I used to date an ER nurse. One day, I asked her if she'd ever go to her own hospital if she needed care, just to get a sense of how much she trusted her colleagues. Her answer was an immediate, firm "absolutely not." She told me, "I see people naked all day, but I would never want my coworkers to see me naked." She was so serious about it she said she'd actively avoid her own ER unless she was unconscious.

Would you mind sharing details of this intimate examination? Completely nude or just from the waist down? Fingers inserted into your vagina? Speculum, too? Am I right to assume the "attending" was a young physician?

My wife used to work in healthcare (administration) for a large group of doctors. She did not want to use any of those doctors if it involved anything intimate or of a sensitive nature. Her gyno (which she used as her PCP) was with another medical group. However, she also said if she ever had anything serious, of any nature, she wouldn't hesitate to go to her group, because she knew who to trust and rely on. In fact, when she had a lump in her breast that needed removed, she used a surgeon that she worked very closely with. She said that was very weird, but glad she chose him.

All of my doctors were from my wife's group. In fact most other employees from her administration went to that group of doctors. They offered a substantial discount for keeping it "in house". It was extremely weird going to one of her work or social events and talking to doctors or staff who had seen me naked or had a finger up my butt. But to be honest, I kind of enjoyed that embarrassment and thought process.

I also know that many of the doctors went to their colleagues for exams and healthcare. Two female doctors my wife was good friends with, each cared for each other. That way they "kept it even". I was always turned on thinking about that.

@cm110365 this was a while ago and I was pretty sick. I think I had on a gown. I know they did an EKG so I was probably topless at some point. The exam itself was a basic pelvic looking for pain and a swab for a culture. The doctor was older than me but not that much. I didn’t like this particular doctor very much which made the whole experience that much worse.

LOL! That's an interesting and humorous way to put it. Kind of like "I'll show you mine if you show me yours."

Female friends of mine that work in the medical fields where getting an intimate exam from a co-worker is possible, mostly say that they've had doctors "in the practice" examine them off/on over the years, but they usually will see one that works primarily in another location than they do. They all see exams as medical, but, it's still the idea of seeing this person every day that they like separation from. It's not even a male doc / female doc thing, it's just a privacy thing.
