I prefer to use a nurse practitioner over a gynocologist. Fortunately, I have not had problems lately, I'm certainly not pregnant, so why wait for a doctor?
I'm sure both of your girls will find their niches at some point Marilyn. One day at a time.

I think your Alzheimer's post was fascinating Gayle. Although I forgot what it was about ().

I took my daughter to a nurse practitioner for her first gyn exam many many years ago. I knew it would be less traumatic with a nurse doing it and it was!!! My daughter still goes to a nurse practitioner for her primary care and so do I. I go to an MD endocrinologist (female - so she can be an honorary nurse ) for my low bone density and low thryoid - but for all else, the nurse practitioner is much better (for me). They ask good questions, listen and make you feel like they are paying attention.

"They ask good questions, listen and make you feel like they are paying attention."
I agree. A lot of doctors are busy and may rush through a visit. I prefer a female anyway, and the nurse practitioners I have used were much more nurturing and caring.
