I don’t understand why any girl would go to a male doctor in the first place, especially if the exam was more of a ”personal” type. However, I’m not surprised by this report. I’ve encountered at least 3 doctors in my life time that were not only inappropriate but I should have reported them because of what was said and done. As a young girl, I was too shocked and embarrassed. This kind of inappropriate behaviour is more common than you think. Parents, make sure you accompany your child during an exam, and ensure a nurse if present if it’s of a gynecological nature. Predators wear all kinds of uniforms.
