Is it ok if my husband comes in the doctors office with me?

Question

This is my first visit to a new doctor. I haven't been in about 2 years. Although, I have gone to the gyno, just not a regular doctor. I'm a really shy person and I have anxiety. Do you think people are going to look at me weird or the doctors going to think something's wrong with me if I have my husband in the room with me just for the first visit? (I'm 30 y/o)

Answer

Nope. He's your husband. 
Also doctors expect this. And it's useful that he knows your medical history. Finally if/when you go to doctors for pregnancy appointments, he will be great emotional support.

Answer

I said no, because I was answering are people going to look at you weird if your husband goes in the room with u, but u should have said yes it's ok for him to go in with you. Lol I recently went in with my husband, but that's because he's very stubborn and hard headed. So I went to hear the doctors orders to be sure my husband does what he's supposed to!

Answer

It's not weird. It's normal

Answer

In my opinion it is safer to bring someone in to doctor visits. Imagine trying to prove that he touched you inappropriately or raped you? Doctor vs. Client. Doctors get the benefit of the doubt and its hard to prove anything against them. I think its wise to bring someone for support and as a potential witness.

Answer

If my husband is with me. He always comes to the room with me.

Answer

It's okay you can have whoever you want in the room during a Dr visit

Answer

Sorry I did two different questions. I won't go by the poll then

Answer

I voted no to that I don't see anything wrong with your husband going in with you. There were two questions.

Answer

I don't think that's weird at all! My husband goes with me.. Just because I get panic attacks really easily in crowded areas, and if he's with me I don't, he's like my safe zone lol

Answer

You've asked two questions that contradict each other so I won't vote as you might read it the wrong way-take him in, the Dr won't mind at all!
