Do you prefer a female doctor or a male doctor?

Question

Answer

If I could get really specific, I would rather a female doctor who's had a baby so she can give real advice, stuff she's been through. My doctor during first trimester was a male who was of no help to me. I'm sure lots of ladies would feel more comfortable talking to someone who's been in our shoes!

Answer

I personally prefer a male doctor. Females doctors I had in the past have been very rough with my lady parts. I can recall leaving getting a routine pap and could barely sit down she was pretty bad And I never went back to her. The male doctors I have had have all been very gentle. The only drawback is they don't have the emotional connection as my female doctors do. My obgyn office it's 5 people you see through you're pregnancy 3 midwifes ( All female) and 2 doctors male. You alternate each visit, one of the 5 will deliver my baby

Answer

I prefer a female midwife

Answer

As long as they know what they're doing I don't care if it's a male or a female doc :)

Answer

I prefer female for the simple reason that she may have actually dealt with certain female issues and be able to not only medically related but understand on a human level also.

Answer

With my first I thought I wanted s female and did most of my pregnancy but a male delivered my daughter which I knew would happen because there were only male obs at the time and during delivery I didn't care at all you have so much else your thinking about at that time the gender of the doctor doesn't matter. This time around I could care less who I have throughout my pregnancy lol

Answer

My midwife is a woman ..lol but my ob that I see once a month to monitor my progress is male and oddly enough he makes me feel super safe and comfortable.  He's the head ob for a group of offices and idk why but he has the most soothing trustworthy nature.  He doesn't make me feel weird at all !
