A Long Overdue REAL Physical

I did once have this happen no instructions, just put the gown on the table and said he will be in shortly so I didn't know if I should be naked or what

I Always have my skinn examined every year.

I've done similar. They get freaky.

I agree that sometimes a doctor will get kind of freaked out if you do something that they're not expecting. I think a lot of what you as a patient do should depend on the reason for the exam and most importantly, your rapport with the doctor. If it's a new doctor that you've never seen before, and you're sitting on the exam table completely nude when they expect that you'll be wearing a gown with underwear -- you're more likely to have an issue. But if you've seen the doctor numerous times already, and you know each other, I don't think it's outrageous to push the limits a little bit and do what makes you more comfortable. Just be honest with the doctor, telling them that you'd be more comfortable without the gown, or the underwear, or whatever the case. Tell them that you undressed completely because you thought it would help speed up the exam (they'll like that idea).

At the end of the day if the doctor makes a big fuss about your preferences, then you have a choice. Dial back your preferences and do exactly what the office asks of you and live with it, or find yourself a new doctor. I prefer the latter -- finding someone that I can work with and someone who is willing to put my needs and wants first rather than their own. I feel that the doctor should be there for my benefit -- not theirs. And if they're not willing to make me the most important person in the exam room, and to make me feel most comfortable, then that's a bad sign for the kind of medical treatment I'll receive down the line. You are still the consumer (within govt and insurance limits of course), and there are plenty of qualified doctors out there, with thousands more being added each year. Go find one that meets all of your needs. Just my 2 cents.

I see my beautiful lady dermatologist yearly for a full body exam. When she comes into the exam room, I am totally nude with a paper towel in front of my privates. She ALWAYS has another female aid with her (for her protection and the patient's). I joke with the Doc that she doesn't get to see the young and beautiful, just the old and wrinkled.

Jimmy I've always found patients who take off all their clothes refreshing. I will never forget my first pelvic. The patient was a beautiful hippie chick at San Francisco General Hospital. I told her we would be doing a pelvic, She promptly removed all of her clothes while I stood there with my jaw dropping. In general though, the rooms are so cold for getting naked.

Whenever I've had a physical exam in the past, the nurse or doctor always told me how much and when to undress and never just handed me a gown without instructions. If I was given a gown without any instructions, I would assume that I was to strip down completely and then put the gown on as that has almost always been the instruction to me if given a gown in the past. No reason to assume that I should keep my underwear on under a gown if I was there for a physical exam.

As I posted elsewhere, my instructions today were to keep on socks and underwear under a gown. I tried underwear only, but the nurse, who in this case came back before the doctor, put a gown on me, most likely because the door opens onto practice hallway traffic. So there may be resistance.

Well, that's an improperly set up exam room. The table should always be where the door can open and passers-by can't see it.

Not just a hallway, the area in which they do various preemployment tests, carrying things from point a to b. I saw several balls. An equipment area, in other words. So opening either exam room door opens onto this area, with workers at desks at the farthest point. Even more amusing (?) workers were removing and installing posters and such along the wall. So I got an excellent exam with horrific environmental issues.

I had only one doctor who told me to put on a gown but to leave my underwear on. I don't remember exactly how he said it as he was leaving the exam room so that I could undress. Maybe he said, "put on this gown and leave your underwear on" or "you can leave your underwear on under this gown." There is a difference but I thought that he meant that I should definitely leave my underwear on so I did. Before that, I had been in a gown without underwear or in my underwear only at other doctors' offices. When this doctor returned to do the exam, he could definitely see that I had kept my briefs on under the gown, especially once he came around behind me to listen to my back with his stethoscope as I took deep breathes. Those gowns gap in the back so it is easy to tell whether the patient is sitting bare butt on the table or is wearing his underwear.

Anyone screw up and leave their underwear on under the gown when they should have not had any on? Did the doctor or nurse say anything?

For David, since this was posted before, the doctor who had his gum chewing NP do the history in a non office and then took me into the exam room with instructions to undress completely and put a gown on, came in to do most of my exam with me, instead, in briefs: my choice. She said nothing. The doctor, who had been on the phone the whole time, overheard through the common wall with his office, came in to 'finish up.' He immediately threw a gown at me to put on. Why? First to have me lift it and drop my briefs for a hernia check. Then to have me lift it up for a prostate check. Finally, gown back down, to have me take it off so I could pose, walk/move around in the exam room. I was once again wearing my briefs. His normal (!) patients would have been naked. Nothing was said about my health. It was like the hand over from server to busboy. I was too confused about why I was asked to put on a gown only to take it off.

I tried underwear only, but the nurse, who in this case came back before the doctor, put a gown on me, most likely because the door opens onto practice hallway traffic.

I agree that regardless of how you ultimately undress/uncover inside the exam room, you need to be mindful of people seeing inside the room when the door opens. That's the only reason why I will use a gown or drape at all -- just to stay somewhat covered while the door opens and closes. But once the doctor is safely inside the exam room, there's no longer a need for any covering at all. At least that's the way I like to do things, as long as it's with a doctor that I've seen before and have a good rapport with. And whether it is an inappropriately setup exam room or not (probably), I can say that most offices that I've visited are setup in a similar way. They are rarely designed for the privacy of the patients -- but instead for the efficiency and convenience of the doctors/nurses.

I have noticed the medical assistant my doctor uses, she is not a nurse (the nurses seem to be to busy to work in a doctor's office, or something) tells me to remove my shirt and pants, leave your underwear on, she barks. Little does she know I don't have any on. I plan to undress and drape myself as I see fit anyway. The doctor has never asked, nor said anything about my nakedness.

One derm assistant tells me the doctor wishes to do a full body on you today, if that's okay. I agree, and expect a full body, since that's what I am there for. She then adds to leave my underwear on. One dermatologist doc told me she sees that I am ready for the full check, but at their office they do not inspect the genitals. How can one get a full body scan with out checking the genitals?

It would be great, if you could give us some more details of that expected through exam once you have passed it.

Over due and with some trubles due to hemorrhoids - I think you know what grade of disrobing you can expect! Wait what kind of order the nurse will give to you!

Geee - except you hemorrhoid trubles I would like to be in your position! ------

Will be Monday morning this coming Monday.

I will update when I get there sharing the anticipation of said exam following up with the full account after

Hope you are somehow also looking a bit foreward to this arrousing event

Thank's in advance for your more detailed report!!

If I had a physical coming up on Monday, that is all I would be thinking about the entire weekend. Have you selected your clothing and underwear? How did this doctor have you strip down the last time he did a physical? Do you expect genital, hernia, and rectal exams? Will you be able to go home and masturbate afterward?

I just got a last question:

How old are you - I supposr you are a man?

If you are under 35, so you have to expect also a thorough examination of your testicles - just to make sure avoiding testicle cancer!

And of course all the other "stuff" as the hernie check etc.

So your doc will spend at least 5 minutes only by cheking your "intimes"!

When you think of all the other examinations which have to be done - I beleive you will spend a full hour just in your "birthday suit" - sometimes only partly covered by a small towel! (like in my case)

Looking forward for your detailed reporting!

Good luck!

A full hour???

Only if he has a concierge physician.

Switchablesuzie; A full hour???Only if he has a concierge physician._______________________________________€€€€Yeah I know right...lol probably about 45 minutes give or take.i haven't seen him in well over 4 years now and things need to be addressed some rather bad headaches my blood work a minor skin thing . I know the nurse I talked to said he sets aside like 45 mins for physicals. Well until later on after 11 I should have a decent update. .Most very much important he is a good doctor!! Hands down regardless of aroused or not he's cool laid back and really cares about what's going on! !!

Well here now for my exam. In the lot

All fresh and clean. 25 min to the appointment

In some . white low rise briefs black waist band nice and snug. Jockey pro.

More details later

And nothing to really brag about being naked, the exam was just a t-shirt off the usual heart and breathing / skin checks. No stand and drop your pants even.

BUT,

I will say, I do like my Doctor! Hes so laid back easy to talk to and listen's with no criticizing or oh why did you do that for, or any kind. All my issues were addressed that we talked about. I'm just not sure how or why I would try to ask about being naked sense he came in and sat down and talked about everything. I LOVE it!!

I will have to have a play exam then soon.

Thanks for the feedback and interest on my post everyone I wish I had more to add.

Thank you for an honest--though disappointing-- post. It is so nice that you did not tell us the doctor put you up in GYN stirrups with a dozen female medical students watching and the receptionist opening the door in the midst of your rectal exam. You get karma for being an honest poster.

Alas, almost all exams are unexciting.

I have had really only two hot real exams so.. as in how thoroughly I know the one medical student did enjoy it. And one other one from one of my other most favorite Dr. From a different medical facilities and system. But yeah I don't think it's worth posting stuff about real exams ref stuff that doesn't happen

Hey Switch and Medfed,

You're both exactly right, the fantasy build-up is 'usually' in our heads from years of build up from real or imagined exciting experiences. Then the real thing is almost always, well- regular and non-erotic. But those fleeting experiences where its there for a minute or more...its keeps up fantasizing for more the next time. 😃

Oh well...

That said my mole removal from my chest where I was in my small black cotton briefs laying there for the Doctor and the tech, even though there were stitches, laying (almost) completely exposed...a memory for sure. (http://www.zity.biz/index.php?mx=forum;ox=display;msg=617089)

Enjoy,
