Could it be much worse than getting your prostate gland checked the old
fashioned way?

I am also very protective of my prostate gland. Believer in the theory

"leave well enough alone!"

A couple of years ago, my doctor said, "it's time" I said, "please,
no, I think I'd rather have a male doctor."
Here's the story. My doctor is young and cute. I chose her only
because our family doctor of over 18 years was retiring. Additionally
I chose her because she had gone to my school. Well, her looks helped
too!
So she looks at me and says "look at my little fingers (holding up her
hand with her fingers spread out) now, would you want a male doctor
whose fingers are twice my size?"
I let her do it.

I'd be in deep trouble. I am too young for that.

It's a tough call between a male doctor and a female doctor. Bottom line
(no pun intended, this time), try different doctors until you find the one
that makes sense for you. I've been in a teaching hospital for 25 years;
It doesn't matter, male or female, as long as they are a good doctor and
you're comfortable with them. Oh yeah, and that goes for ethnic or national
background as well. Just as long as it's not that socialized medicine.

My doctor is Korean. Very nice guy. After my last physical, while reading
me the riot act for blood sugar, cholesterol, weight, etc., he asked me
what I was doing for exercise. I told him I walked the dogs every day for
about a half hour.

I then told him I did a lot of fishing and asked if that counted as
exercise.

He, without skipping a beat, asked, "How far can you walk on water?"

Lucky my keyboard wasn't in front of me.
