Reply To: Do women avoid seeking necessary medical care out of modesty?

i don’t generally read or write into these forums but this question caught my eye
i think the question is absurd to any intelligent person
anyone who needs critical medical care should go to which ever doctor is able to heal them the best way possible. when a medical emergency is in progress you call the closest person able to help their are no gender issues when it comes to saving a life . that being said, when all things are equal as far as medical expertise, if a woman feels more comfortable with a woman physician thats her personal preference, go for it
but your not obligated to give up your life if a woman isnt the closest available to do CPR
c’mon how about a little common sense here
