I understand preferring women over men doctors... Or maybe it's a actually a preference of nurses over doctors.... When I had a UTI, the female nurse who did the intake told me I clearly had a raging UTI and could understand the pain I was going through. The male doctor didn't really say much, but when he called me with the results of the test basically said "Oh wow, you DO have a UTI. I didn't think you did, but the results say you do!" Seriously?
I've also had a student do my pap smear before... She didn't do a very good job, and I had to go back for another exam. It turned out that she simply didn't get enough to test, but I got a phone call that I had abnormal results... Talk about nerve wracking until I finally found out what really happened...
Good luck with your doctor search. I hope they get in touch with you to deal with your complaint... They could really get in a lot of trouble if they don't fix the issue.
