What's on the ceiling for you to look at during your exam?

Just the dots of the ceiling tile! pretty boring.

At my current gyno there is nothing on the ceiling, which I'm fine with as I'd rather look around the exam room and/or watch the doctor, sort of taking in the scene as it is happening to me. That definitely adds to my experience once I'm home 😃 I've been to other gynecologists that have had a butterfly mobile and poster of a tropical beach scene.

At my office, they always have pictures of attractive men on the ceiling!

In college there was nature scene posters above the bed. Now there is just plain white ceiling. Wish i had some hunky person to look at.

...but then to also have to see chip and dale dancers on the ceiling. Very uncomfortable.

Doesn't sound like an appropriate place for cartoon chipmunk characters, no wonder.

Seriously, the Chippendale guys don't belong there either, that's a bit much IMO.

My current doctor is strictly professional - just white ceiling but I did have a dentist that had a video monitor to watch TV.

That was sorta cool

Just some lights on a white ceiling... with they were like the dentist office and had TVs up there

The ceiling has texture and lights. But there is a television on the wall at the foot of the exam table. Able to watch tv until the doctor enters, and can probably keep the tv on during the entire exam, but can't really see the tv once lying down.

At the Gyn for women's health there is a light with blue skies on it. At my Gyn specialist there's nothing but white tiles

The gyn's I've been to usually have a peaceful sky scene or something nature orientated like trees/flowers

My doctor's surgery doesn't have anything on the ceilings of it's consulting rooms to look at

A picture of a soaking wet cat, fur standing up in all directions, with the caption: bad hair day. The wet puss always made me snicker.

@ luckyme...that's funny, and your wet puss comment. :-)

A wonderful scenic picture of snow on mountains with a clear blue sky, it is very relaxing and sometimes you can "drift" whilst looking at this.

Nothing but a textured ceiling. I do have great doctor though, that talks about anything I want to, just to keep me from focusing my attention on what she is doing. I have even asked her NOT to tell me what she is doing, so I don't tense up any more than I already am. Not a big med-fet person am I?

Very much so, I'm afraid. More so now than when I was younger. I had heart surgery 4 years ago and now have an absolute phobia of doctors, needles - anything having to do with medical procedures. It is very embarrassing.

Hopefully you are much better now drm? Neither any heart issues or gyn issues these days?

No problems to speak of... Just that fear I try so hard to get past.

Just white ceiling tiles.

My doctor now has nothing on the ceiling. But my very first doctor had a poster of Tom Selleck on the ceiling, which, at 18, creeped me out, because my uncle looks like Tom Selleck. Of course, when is made mention of this fact, the nurse burst out laughing and asked me if she could have my uncle's phone number. I was mortified then, but it's hilarious now.

My old gyno had the "Hang in there!" kitty poster hahaha

One room I have been in had blue ceiling tiles with fish etc on them.All of the other rooms have just been plain cream tiles.

Just white textured ceiling tiles with the tiny holes. Sometimes I can make out a circle in them. LOL

First doctor i went too had mirror on ceiling that was very creepy to me to be able to watch from above. Next gyn was just plain white tiles but he was the best because he always told me to concentrate on his voice and if i got scared or nervous to look at him he always made sure i could see his face that truly helped me I miss him he is no longer a gyn he was very good though.

A friend of mine commented that her Gyno had a poster of Monet's Water Lilies on the ceiling. She thought it was nice but weird.

A purple textured ceiling…………

Purple? Now that must be a site to see!

I don't recall anything specific on the ceilings or walls. I don't know why my memory is so terrible when it comes to medical exams.

Both my family doctor and gynecologist have plain white painted ceilings. Nothing really to look at.

Fluorescent light bulbs on a white ceiling. Better off with my eyes closed.
