Doctors
Hi.I just have a general question. I have gone to a doctor for over a year just for things like when I had a cold and I have acne so for prescriptions for that and also skin rash medication and that kind of thing. A few months ago I had to go to the DR regarding a female thing and he suggested that I got to Health & Community Services because it's run by woman and I might be more comfortable getting treated there so he gave me the number. So after that I decided that I would like to get on the pill but I would rather see a woman doctor for that type of stuff so I looked though the newspaper and found a woman doctor that was taking new patients and went to her for them. So basically my question is..should I just now go to the woman doctor regarding everything? They are both really nice but I would rather have a female to discuss female problems with and get pap tests done . If I should ever become pregnant I guess I'd go to the female dr..?? I like them both but I don't know if I should only go to 1 now? They are both GP's. I am from a small town so when I lived home we just went to the local hospital and whatever dr was there at the time treated us so I don't really know if I should only go to 1 or not..:S
Anyways does anyone have an opinion? What do you do?
Thanks :)

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
personally i stuck with my family dr. lol the one who even dilivered me! i thought i would be more comfortiable with a woman dr. but the more i thought about it, shes a stranger! i was comforitable with my normal dr even though he is a male. i dont think i could get a pap smear by a stranger.

well actually i was in the same kind of situation a few months ago. but in my case i had no choice but to go to the male doctor. i dont think it will make much diffrance in your tests and other things but as for feeling more comftrable i say go for the female. you will feel so much comtrable with her and plus she may be able to relate to your female problems better than the male will.

Go to whoever you are most comfortable with.
There is nothing wrong with going to both either. If you like both go to the man doctor for everything but "female things". :)

the Health & Community Services one sounds good, if its run by all women, and if a dr. recommends them, i would imagine that they would be pretty good, and i know i would trustworthy female doctors taking care of me.
i also think that a dr. in the newspaper is taking new patients sounds a little weird, and i have never seen that before...but it makes thing "why does she need new patients? what happened to the other ones? is she not trusted or very good?"
im sure she is nice, but i think the Health & Community Services gets my vote.
hope things are going well for you ♥
