Back in my 30s, I decided to visit an older male doc, in a solo practice. I signed in, and was shown back to the exam room, by a nurse near my age, who took my vitals, and told me basically, although not in these words, to strip to the waist. I also took my shoes off, and was sitting on the side of the table, topless, when the older doctor arrives, and begins the exam.
My abdominal exam is done with me kying, with my pants open, and still up.
I then stand, and am told to drop everything. The frontal is done by the table, then I am told to go to the end of the table, and bend….
Certainly didn't expect all that from a ok, slip of the shirt and doctor will be in shortly.!
