Now Carol I really don't think this is wise information to share with any woman. No pelvic exams? Ever? I hardly think you mean this. Are we to never have a Pap test? Never have an exam for ovarian cancer? Never be checked for cysts or fibroids or the multitude of other medical conditions that require a pelvic exam?

I don't think so.........

In many paaarts of this country and the rest of the world "primary docs", as you call them are all a women has to give them care. In fact my first child was born by one and I liked Him! Took care of her too!

I suppose we should Never have a male/female doc check our breasts either and then we can have an even higher rate of deaths from breast cancer.

And what may I ask do CNP and CNM and FNP do when a women goes to Them just talk to them?

Good for you Dr. Hill.

I'm going to bed..............
