NOTICE: AS OF TODAY MAY 13 2009 "PATIENT MODESTY: VOLUME 16" WILL BE CLOSED FOR FURTHER COMMENTS. YOU CAN CONTINUE POSTING COMMENTS ON VOLUME 17.
With more women contributors to these threads, the women have expressed their concerns about modesty issues related to excessive and presumed unnecessary pelvic exams and pap smears. The men continue the discussion of their own modesty concerns which appear to be ignored by physicians. And the conversations go on.. ..Maurice.
PLEASE NOTE: Since there is a lot of back and forth discussion between those who write here, it would be important for clarity and continuity to identify who writes what. Therefore, each writer if desiring to remain anonymous should at least use a consistent pseudonym or initials at the end of their posting or even log on to Blogger with that pseudonym so your posting will be identified at the outset. Thank you. ..Maurice.
