Patient doctor relationship?!


Question: Patient doctor relationship!?
When you go to the gyno for a check-up can you request to speak to your doctor alone without the nurse being present if you want to discuss something really private and personal!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Indeed you can!. You have that right!. The nurse, assuming it is a female, is present to be a witness of what has transpired during the exam so that you can't come back and accuse the doctor of sexual misconduct, in which case it would be his word against yours!. The doctor may want this "private" consult between you and him to take place in his office as opposed to his exam room!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

A third party should chaperone the examination, but the doctor will usually talk to you in his or her office afterwards!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes but the actual exam cannot happen without a female in the room!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
