First Time Gynecologist Visit

Alisha
So, sadly because of circumstances in my life, I've NEVER seen a gynecologist. It's been put off for far too long, and I'm freaking out. I've heard that some of the things they do hurt. I've heard that some of the gynecologists that you would have to go see aren't very courteous, and that their bedside manner is awful. So I've heard a few horror stories basically, and I'm freaking out. Advice?
