Pediatricians that take advantage of their Power.

I always wondered if there are pediatricians who were more thorough then neccessary in order to be able to keep patients nude longer?

What do you think? When I think back I think my pediatrician was more thorough to kids she liked. I would like to hear your thoughts and experiences.

It just seems natural for anyone to want to look at an attractive person. Even the most ethical doctors must have an unconscious desire to keep a pretty girl undressed longer.

My wife, who was just adorable when she was young, has always had really long exams. Much longer than most exams, based on what we have read. I'm sure her doctors must have loved examining her.

@XposeHer Was this when she was under 18 (e.g. a minor) ??

I think both. We met in college so I have only seen her adult exams. She said that her exams as a teen and preteen were always very long and she did have issues. She had scoliosis that several doctors were involved with so I'm sure all her exams were perfectly legitimate. I'm just a horn dog and I see sexual excitement everywhere I look.

I did not mean to suggest that her doctors were in any way inappropriate.

There have been extremes, where a doctor has been criminally charged with sexual abuse. One of the best known cases, involved Larry Nasser, who was the doctor for a female college team, or something similar. I think that for the majority of doctors, it’s just a part of the job , but plenty of sickos enter the profession, as in anything else. One phony doctor in Florida, was “interviewing “ nurses, and had requested that the applicants submit to rectal temps., and “other exams.”

I did not mean the natural interest in the other sex. I mean doing rectal instead of ear thermometer. Have patients nude longer then necessary just because the Docs have the power and are in charge. Maybe not at all patients, but at the cute ones.

No. I grew up at a time when physical exams for kids and teenagers could often be a bit more involved than they are now, and certainly with more mandatory exposure than often happens now. But I never felt like any of the doctors I went to were taking advantage. If anything, I think I would have been just one of many kids they saw that day and they probably just wanted to get through it, doing a good job, and then move on to their next patient.

This is a notion that is so typical of our present times. Everything is viewed with suspicion, no matter how ordinary. Unscrupulous people take advantage of these hyped-up fears by using underage sex accusations and insinuations as a tool in their career moves or in politics. It is something that the media has played up to again and again, because outrage sells.

Hence people tend to see it occurring in so many places and instances, when it is not necessarily so.

Men can enjoy looking at young, well toned attractive women - even underaged women - with no intention of doing anything inappropriate. Doctors, Teachers, Coaches, Husbands, Boyfriends, Clergy can all appreciate such beauty with no insidious intentions to take advantage of the subject. It's obvious, even here, that people use hyped up charges to selectively judge behaviors, while ignoring others. Prostitution is openly discussed in detail with visits to spas, happy endings and more with no apparent negative connotation - even though it directly or indirectly contributes to sex trafficking. We all have double standards!!!

Pediatricians who are pedophiles do exist. There is one in my area awaiting trial for abusing multiple underage girls outside his clinical practice. It would be interesting to question his nurses regarding his actions in the office.

@agracier and @gwhap maybe but that doesn’t mean that there AREN’T doctors who go/went over the line. I had one.

I had one female pediatrician as well that crossed the line. Mom believed everything what she said and questioned none of her decisions.

@Nurse_Phillips I am so sorry you had that experience. No one should be taken advantage of by a person of trust. But it does happen, and it's a slam on all those great doctors who are dedicated to the health of their patients and not their sick proclivities.

I - and I don't believe @agracier - didn’t mean to trivialize or rationalize the perverts that do exist in the medical field. No intent to justify or minimize bad behavior of doctors.

In which way did she cross the line?

@SabsSan there were many things. But mostly she had me nude the whole time. Did rt until teen years. Measured genitals.

With the way it is now--I would imagine Pediatricians or anyone who is in the medical care of minor children would be extremely cautious with examinations/treatment(s) requiring any partial or full nudity of a child below age 18. Having the parent(s)/guardian present during any exam/treatment would be a mandatory requirement. All it takes is one accusation and a Doctor's practice and life can be destroyed whether the accusation is true or complete B.S.

I would say that having only parents/guardian present is not enough to protect a doctor from malicious actors. Who is to say that there aren't parents willing to make false accusations and try and profit monetarily?

As a child or more as a teen, if you asked me if I felt undressed too long, I would say, any amount of time felt like that but it was done in the presence of a parent or nurse. So from my perspective, this is a different issue and one that likely plays a role in adult fantasies, etc.

When I was 14 I believe the nurse at my pediatrician‘s office took advantage of me during two separate physical exams. I think she enjoyed embarrassing me during the examination of my penis. She would intentionally, I believe touch it in a way that made me achieve an involuntary erection. It was humiliating.

My Pediatricians exams I was always undressed when I got into the exam room until after the exam was over. Then when the Doctor left the room the nurse kept me naked and did some touchy feelie with me. So I was naked for quite a while after my underpants was removed.

And others might have remembered it as something pleasurable and arousing, as a fond memory.

It would still be seen as crossing the line into abuse.

Said it before I had a chance to.

There is the action itself. Then there is the reaction upon the afterthought. Looking back on an experience, you can start to think of how things went down in a certain way, second guess intentions, when in actuality, the water is really muddy because there's the action, there's how it affects you in the moment, then there's how it affects you after some time that the moment has passed. Which leads to possibly second guessing intentions.

The only real way to get confirmation one way or the other is to continue to have more experiences with the same individual, to see what happens over time.

You can feel humiliated over something that happened, but was it intentional. And then was it the intention TO humiliate you, or was there another agenda altogether. Maybe like a perversion of some sort. The only real way to know is on repeat experiences. Because I think a one-off may be hard to call.

I definitely think this happens, as sad as it is to say. I think there’s a lot of doctors and nurses who do this. These are just my thoughts and observations, though.

I was unnecessarily stripped and examined by a pediatrician when I was 12 years old. I was away from home at a sleep away camp and was taken to see the local doctor due to a bad cough. That experience had a profound effect on me.

There seems to be a knee jerk reaction here on Zity sometimes to minimize these situations, specifically when the victim/survivor is male. It is very common for survivors of abuse to minimize and justify the abuse, they do not benefit when others do this as well.

I, like others here, were drawn to this site by interests that stem from experiences of molestation and abuse. Just because a doctor or nurse can ‘justify’ it and claim to exam or contact was necessary doesn't mean it was. It's a covert abuse of power. Most medical professionals may be just that, but humans also abuse.

Just like any profession, there are good people and bad. I think most pediatricians are upstanding doctors but there are some out there that will abuse their power. A good example of a doctor gone bad was the guy that molested Olympic gymnasts. He is now serving multiple life sentences.

Agree…

Some here seem to believe medical professionals are ‘always’ above reproach. We all know that's not true.

12 years old. Away from home, meaning your parents not around. Camp. Local doctor. Profound effect on you, meaning you hadn't had an experience anything like that with a doctor up until that point, and not since either.

How many accounts have we learned about, kids this age at camp and an authority figure. And for every one that we do learn about, there's every one that we don't hear about.

This most certainly happens, Even if you just think statistically. I know, for me, growing up I saw a doctor who definitely took his time checking “down there”. I remember him telling me that he needed to check my private area because I was starting puberty, also adding that because it’s such a personal exam. I didn't have to tell anyone about it. He then proceeded to feel my testicles and groin until I became fully erect…which took about 20 seconds back then, lol. He commented that erections are a normal part of growing up. He finished the exam by pulling my penis down away from my body and pinching the shaft between his thumb and index finger. Was his behavior extreme? Probably not. was it appropriate? Probably not. It never occurred to me until much later that he may have overstepped on that exam but it never troubled me enough to say anything,

Exactly.

My regular pediatrician only checked genitals during annual physicals. He had me in briefs only and while I was laying down he pulled the briefs down and away and felt testicles for maturation. I was expecting it and I went to that doctor from birth until 18 years old. He lived in my neighborhood and we trusted him. His office did do rectal temps for sick visits and penicillin shots to the buttocks, but somehow those are not that kind of memory for me.

He did do one pervy thing during regular visits when I was a teen, he would push his groin into my knee while looking in my ears while I was seated on the exam table. Ironically the experience in camp gave me an interest in becoming a doctor and I discussed that idea with my regular pediatrician, but all that schooling scared me off.

I agree, like the catholic church, medical doctors have reached the tipping point and they are starting to get called out for unnecessary and inappropriate exams.
