Drug reps in the exam room

Last week I went for a follow up appointment with my doctor, and when I entered the exam room, I was introduced to a pharmaceutical salesman, who would sit in on the appointment! No one asked my permission! I did not have to disrobe for my exam , but I still consider it an invasion of privacy. Next time, I plan to tell my doctor to never do this again.

Am I over-reacting?? With unconsented pelvic exams on unconscious surgical patients and drug reps in the exam room, and the bait and switch of med students doing the operations, does the medical profession think we are all idiots?
