When you are asked to disrobe in advance how fare do you go?

I wonder, how many people when they are told by the nurse to disrobe and wait for the doc, still keep their underwere on and how many strip completely nude right from the beginning?

This has never happened to me, as I always go in to see my doc fully clothed and afterwards undress so far as he asks me!

Perhaps I will try it out once, when I go in for my anual checkup!

My doctor has a one doctor office with just a few exam rooms. His PA calls me in from the waiting room and he directs me to the exam room and gets my height and weight. If my office visit requires undressing the PA orders me to strip, including my socks, down to my briefs. When I am undressed, he gets me on the table and he takes my vitals. He has done EKGs on me as part of my physical when ordered and I was undressed when he attached all the the sensors and hooked me up to the machine.

When the nurse tells me to disrobe I go all the way

I wish they'd do unclothed exams anymore.

If naked exams ever became the norm again, imagine the howls of protest that would ensue. Lack of respect, invasion of privacy, humiliation, prurient interest in a patient's body etc etc ...

There would be forums dedicated to preserving patients modesty, instead of forums like zity with members longing for the opposite ... ha ha

For cath changes I'm told to get undressed and many times the nurse stays in with me getting the supplies ready for me, she will see everything anyway and has many times

There already are - http://www.patientmodesty.org Some of the stories are so ridiculous as to be funny. "I was in the hospital and I demanded all staff taking care of me be of my gender..."

Patient preference should have something to do with the decision. When I was a massage therapist, I gave my patients the choice of draping and dress. Want a complete (ethical) massage? Get naked. Leave clothing on? That area doesn't get massaged.

I have had that happen at the doctor's office, when in for a physical examination. The nurse just says "Start undressing, as I'm sitting on the exam table, still snug in button up flannel shirt with favorite warm ski pants. As she leave the room, all I take off are my shoes and socks, waiting for the doctor to come in. When the doctor(female) comes into the examination room she goes over my medical records with me, while I'm still clothed. As she prepares to do my physical exam, she asks the nurse to bring the gown for me. I have a lot of anxiety, realizing she will be feeling and groping my genitals and getting a rectal exam. I am sexually aroused, when in a lady like matter, tells me to strip off all my snug winter clothes, knowing I'm wearing several warm layers underneath. The nurse comes in with the gown, when the doctor says"Once he's naked and in the gown, start the preliminaries,let me know and we can complete the full physical. I'm sitting on the exam table in my snug winter clothes, blushing somewhat as the nurse says for me to step to the other side of the room, waiting for me to start stripping naked. Both the nurse and doctor stayed watching me slowly unbutton, unzip the snug winter snow pants. I really did n't want to fully undress, hoping I could keep the tights and sports briefs underneath on, but to no avail, since this will be a full body physical, everything comes off, no matter how long it takes to bare it all. Fortunately it was n't a busy day for them, so the doctor will be thorough with me. after,slowly and shyly getting out of snug warm winter attire,down to the tight white nylon sports brief, containing my now unavoidable full erection. Both her and the doctor said "Those undies have to come off too," "Don t' be be bashful,having an erection, it is a normal male reaction, when stripping for and during a male physical examination. I was blushing, slowly peeling the beautiful white briefs below my waist, Then the nurse reached under the rolled down waist band, gently freeing my excited penis from the clinging briefs. Then gave a few good pulls and the briefs were down to my ankles, as I did let out a boyish moan, with my erect penis standing upward, fully exposed, then in the gown, it looked like tent city under the gown, as the nurse did the basics, with me being naked. Now the doctor stepped in and commenced the major part of my physical including the genital and rectal examinations, totally naked, the gown was taken off during the physical. I was still hard, putting on the change of underwear and baggy clothes. I got a clean bill of health for another year, but it was a long afternoon, especially getting all my warm and snug winter outfit off, under their watchful medical eyes.

Usually halfway through the exam.

My doctor's office they tell me to take everything off except my underwear. That is the norm there.

Besides the great feeling by standing in your birthday suit in front of fully clothed medic persons - what kind of other advantiges exist to (re)introduce fully unclothed examination?

To form it's own opignon, It would be very usefull to read from some medic staff too!

You probably want to search the site. All of this has already been discussed,

The level of disrobing coincidences with the reason for the appointment. My annual physical requires I strip to my boxer briefs from the onset of the appointment. If my winter bronchitis is acting up then i will remove my shirt and undershirt to be stethed. If i am having an ankle problem then the shoe and sock are removed.

I normally undress all the way down to my boxers then put the cloth gown on that they provide for me to put on then hop onto the exam table and wait for my doctor to enter the room.

I always ask when they hand me a gown and tell me to put it on. If not given a chance I would only go down to my under pants. It would be embarrassing to strip for no reason.

I've always stripped down to my boxers. There was one time that they told me to undress completely. After the nurse left that time I got naked and waited on the exam table. Waiting for the doctor completely naked made me so nervous!

I always strip to my underpants and sit and fight off an erection cause I know my genitals and aasshole are gonna get checked by my female dr!!!!

I always undress to my underpants as that is what the nurse tells me to do.

I don't remember every having a choice of how much to undress before the doctor comes in for the exam. I'm either told clearly what to do by the nurse or I am still dressed when the doctor arrives and then told what to do. I have never had an experience where the instructions were unclear and I had to decide how far to go in undressing. Who goes to doctors where the instructions have been unclear?

In the UK the level of disrobing depends on the area to be examined, as we don't have gowns at the GP surgery. Most GP's are quite precise in their instructions so there is very little doubt on the patients part. In A&E most patients are ask to disrobe to their underwear and are given a gown, but again it all depends on what is going to be examined or what procedure is going to be performed.

Maybe a bit of a sidestep, but here's how one doctor looked at things back in pulp fiction days ...

@ agracier ^^^ What an enjoyable image archive...ty....Spent more time there than reading topic--haha

At my doctor's office I am given a paper gown and asked to take off everything except my panties.

My doctor is the one that tells me to undress, and then he leaves me alone for a few minutes to get ready. He's clear. He's hands me a gown and tells me "Put this on...take everything else off, including your underwear and socks." So I do exactly as I'm told.

Everytime I see my urologist, the nurse comes in the room and says, "Everything off from the waist down". ( I can keep my socks on). My vascular surgeon (who did my AAA repair) has everything off from the waist down, including socks (to check the pulses in my feet). My FP Doc never has me disrobe, just slides my slacks down far enough to palpate my abdomen. I like the urologist's office requirements best.

90% of my exams ... asked to strip down to my underwear. On two occasions I have disrobed completely; however, I was provided a small sheet to cover myself from the waist down. On two additional occasions I was instructed to strop completely then don an exam gown.

To Jimmy114, if you are being told to strip below the waist for exams, are you given anything to cover up with while waiting for the doctor?

What if the Doctor just finished going over health history questions and made small talk, then said, "Lets have you take your things off, you can just drop them on the chair." Then as he looked out exam room window he then said, "You may leave your shorts on if you prefer." Where would you guys go with that?

You're assuming the wearing of shorts...

Misunderstanding of words here I think, with shorts, briefs, boxers, underpants all being more or less the same ... discounting the obvious fashion differences.
