This tells you everything you need to know. It's a step by step rundown of everything that happens at an exam. [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
It doesn't matter whether the doctor is male or female. They all act professionally and will walk through this with you before they do anything or invite your mother to watch. Even if it's a male, you can always ask for a nurse to be present. Trust me, they know how uncomfortable you feel.
They also see thousands of genitals so yours won't phase them or be seen as any different. You can also always find a female doctor and arrange an appointment if more comfortable that way.

I answered a question about the procedure right here:

My answer basically tells you everything you need to know about a pap. I took the time to write down a step-by-step appointment pretty much.
You may want to speak to your mother about being uncomfortable with a male doctor. Your mother may understand and help you find a female doctor if there is one around your area. In smaller towns there may not be another gynecologist to see so you may HAVE to see this doctor to get your annual.
Calmly let your mother know that you are nervous about the doctor's appointment because of the doctor's gender. Let her know you're uncomfortable with a man in your personal region and were wondering if she could set you up an appointment with a woman doctor instead. Don't demand to change doctors if your mother says she'd rather you see him. Just let her know what you're feeling so she can comfort and reassure you.
Talk things over with your mother. She may know this doctor very well and wants you to see him because she's exceptionally good. Trust me, seeing a GOOD male doctor is better than seeing a BAD female doctor, and I'm someone who prefers female doctors too.
Men are just as good as women gynecologists. They are also very professional so you don't have to worry about them violating you or doing something wrong. They are in an occupation where if a patient claims they touched her inappropriately they will lose their license--so they are VERY strict and professional during the procedure. They went to a lot of schooling to get their degrees so, trust me, they're not going to lose it because they wanted to play fondle with a patient--especially a young, underage patient.
Relax and don't worry. Things are going to go smoothly. Talk things over with your mother in advance so she knows why you're nervous.
I hope your visit goes well and you're found to be healthy. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask me :)

I understand your fears. I know I had them
at your age too. Since your mom probably made
the appointment for you, you're kinda stuck
with the doctor she got for you.
It really won't be that bad. Just remember
he is a doctor and seen it all thousands
of times. There will always be a nurse in
the room with you. You will never be alone
with him unless it is to talk afterwards
or beforehand. Being nervous is perfectly
normal. Your doctor will know you are
nervous and will do his best to put you
at ease.
If you have questions about anything never
hesitate to ask him. Write the questions
down before you go, then you won't forget
to ask. Sometimes when your nervous its
easy to forget what you wanted to know!
As far as the actual exam, here is a site
that will tell you exactly what will be
going on. Lots of other good information
on the site too. Should you see something
you have a question about, ask your doctor.
It really won't last very long. It will Be
over before you know it. :)

i would say change doctors first and then ask one of the nurses to expect.

My first suggestion is to ask to see a female gynaecologist if it worries you a lot. Secondly, they have seen it all before a million times and you will be no different so please don't be embarrassed. I know that you are worried about what might happen, but they should talk you through any procedures they will do and explain what will happen. If they do not, don't be afraid to ask. I would also suggest asking your Mum to go along with you for moral support. She does not need to be a the 'working' end or even in the room, but just knowing she is there will be a help. She will also know what is going on having been through it all herself. I hope that it all goes well with you. Good luck.
