I could get my family doctor to do it but I just don’t feel that comfortable having him do it.

Like I completely trust him but I just don’t feel like having him do it. I talk to him about everything but I feel I wouldn’t be able to talk to him again if he does it? I make no sense. I’d just rather a gyno doc do it that way it’s just that and nothing else.

But I guess it’ll be good to have a two week check in with my doctor while I’m there for the referral. Adjusting my lithium could use a check in. I like talking to my doctor. I just don’t want him poking around my vagina lmao.

Yeah I feel the same. I have a primary doctor and he's great and all but when he said I needed to schedule a pap test and said he could do it at his office or he could refer me to someone else to do it if I was more comfortable with that and I'm like yes definitely refer me to someone else. I would feel very awkward if he did it and extremely awkward talking to him afterward.
