She didn't want to touch my fanny!

I'm a bit taken aback so thought I'd scribble it all down here and give you all something to read.

I'm almost due my regular screening which I usually visit my local GUM for, but today had an appointment with my nurse at the GP surgery and thought while I'm there I'll get my swabs done.

The look of horror on her face when I said what I wanted, you'd think I'd spat at her children or something! She almost refused to do it, saying "well you really need to visit the GUM for that kind of thing" and proceeded to type notes (reading out loud as she typed, which I hate!) saying she had advised me she would do it on this occasion but not in future

I'm not sure wether I'm mortified or finding it hilarious. Why wouldn't she want to touch my fanny? It's lovely

I have no idea, it's a funny old world.

The best internal exam I ever had was when the male gp had inserted the speculum, cranked it up to the Blackwall Tunnel setting just as the nurse said "why do you have a monkey wrench in your medical bag?". We all started sniggering and the exam couldn't continue until we had all calmed down. Not my most dignified hour

Haha that would actually make me more relaxed, I love a good giggle.

It's weird cos I'm never usually bothered about examinations and stuff but she made me feel really uncomfortable this morning

"GP Surgeries don't generally offer sexual health screening, which is why she was proberbly hesitant. She proberbly wasn't trained for it."

That is what I was thinking. If I need an internal exam I have to book with the gynecology nurse at my GP surgery, I can't just drop it into the conversation about my ear ache.

I've had it done there before, our surgery has nurse practitioners which apparently means they can offer more services. It's been about 2 years since I was screened there though and have used the clinics since

The nurses at my practice do everything. However, if I'm booked in for a blood test at 9.30 then ask for a smear they'd probably say no and ask me to rebook for no other reason than blood tests are 8.30 to 10 on a first come first served basis.

If there are people waiting they clear those, and to be honest I'd understand that. I've been the last patient and asked for something else and they've obliged. I've also had something else and had to rebook a blood test as it was after 10.

I wouldn't automatically jump to a negative conclusion.

Her words to me were we don't really do that here, not I don't have time or you need a separate appointment. I popped in for 30 seconds (on a related matter) and thought I'd kill two birds with one stone.

She clearly just didn't want to do it, although according to their website it is indeed a service they provide still

Well killing 2 birds with one stone is tricky business, especially in a confined area such as a doctor's surgery. Then the clean up operation afterwards would be time consuming, feathers everywhere!

I think if you wouldn't have done that then the receptionist would have been happy to touch your fanny... Lesson learned x

I don't bother ringing my doctor for anything gynaecology related. I went once, while I was still married and the gp asked if I was happy to go to a walk in sexual health clinic. So I went there, instead of waiting for a nurse appointment. It was high Strep B causing me pain and bleeding, which the clinic said they don't usually treat for, but gave me antibiotics.

Usually, my gp would have swabbed during the appointment; maybe this one didn't fancy doing it.

Our gp surgery won't do any std tests of any kind. You have to go to the gum clinic at the local hospital and sit in the waiting room with everyone else who knows what you're there for.

You are then called in by a given number.

I'm not bothered by it but I can understand some peoples reluctance to visit if they know it's so public and the chances of bumping into someone you know is very high.

Some replies here are vile.

As you say you were almost due your check up AND that she was taken aback ...... it seems that she wasn't expecting to carry out a std check and was doing something else with you instead......

Practice nurses have a busy schedule and an extra check up would have put her back.

I didnt put her behind schedule at all, it's a drop in morning that I dropped into, and like I've already said her response wasn't about time or needing a separate appointment, she said I couldn't have that done there. Contrary to the fact that I've had it done there before and the surgery website says that it's a service which is offered.

Your surgery may not be commissioned to provide that service. In that case she gave you the right advise to go to the GUM clinic. Commissioning of health services is complex and no reflection on the staff.

Well if that's the case I'd be taking it up with the Practice Manager. I'd want to know why the reluctance to do the tests. Is it a training issue? A Management performance issue? Ultimately if the Practice is paid then they should provide the service.

"You should make the Practice Manager aware of this, that sort of attitude might stop other women approaching her if they had concerns. It is her job after all.

....its not necessarily her job. Do you walk into your dentists and say 'I have a dodgy knee. Sort it out!' No it depends if that surgery provides that service and is ultimately paid to provide it.

"

In the context of this thread and with the information provided, of course it is her job. The debtist/knee comment shows you to be a pedant sir!

No it doesn't! It shows me be be someone who happens to know a fair bit about commissioning services. Don't assume all GP practices are commissioned to provide these services. And if you read my comment you will see that the OP only confirmed she'd had the tests there before After my comment, which changed my answer.

Get off your high horse! She actually said:

Don't attempt to put others down by assuming we DON'T know about how such services are commissioned please.

And I've said to take it up wuth the Practice Manager. How have I put you down. If you chose to interpret my post as a direct attack on you then that's YOUR issue. Not mine.

Passive aggression is never nice.

I said the same thing re the Practice Manager originally, you then threw in a ridiculous premise of someone with a bad knee seeking advice from a dentist. Then you waded in about commissioning etc because you are "someone who knows about" how that works.

I've got no issues at all. Re-read the OPs original post and you will spot where you originally went wrong. Had it not been a service provided at that practice:

A. I doubt OP would have requested it

B. Said nurse would not have written her notes, speaking aloud, to cover her back.

I still contend that OP should bring this to the attention of the Practice Manager so that other, possibly less confident women, don't experience the same attitude.

Jeez Louise!

"(reading out loud as she typed, which I hate!) "

Whenever I'm sat in the doctors and what's being said is audible I always like to give my opinion.

"Oo, I wonder why . It reminds me of the time a woman gp needed to examine me internally and told me before she started that she didn't like doing it

Haha what the hell are these people doing in their chosen profession? "

It does make you wonder with some. Most helping people but there are a few I doubt have any interest in that.

"GP Surgeries don't generally offer sexual health screening, which is why she was proberbly hesitant. She proberbly wasn't trained for it."

Yes this, they don't usually do sti testing at gp,s, that's what Gum clinics are for.

"I'm a bit taken aback so thought I'd scribble it all down here and give you all something to read.

I'm almost due my regular screening which I usually visit my local GUM for, but today had an appointment with my nurse at the GP surgery and thought while I'm there I'll get my swabs done.

The look of horror on her face when I said what I wanted, you'd think I'd spat at her children or something! She almost refused to do it, saying "well you really need to visit the GUM for that kind of thing" and proceeded to type notes (reading out loud as she typed, which I hate!) saying she had advised me she would do it on this occasion but not in future

I'm not sure whether I'm mortified or finding it hilarious. Why wouldn't she want to touch my fanny? It's lovely "

Maybe the poor woman had previous bad experiences of unhygienic customers. As swingers we are all probably more conscious of our bodies and tend to keep ourselves cleaner than the average punter. It only takes a whiff of untreated vaginosis to create an unforgettable moment. You only have to watch Embarrassing Bodies to realise what some people have got lurking and festering in their trollies.

It is a union thing, if the clap clinic nurses union found out she did this, it could causes strikes.

The nurses at my practice do everything. However, if I'm booked in for a blood test at 9.30 then ask for a smear they'd probably say no and ask me to rebook for no other reason than blood tests are 8.30 to 10 on a first come first served basis.

If there are people waiting they clear those, and to be honest I'd understand that. I've been the last patient and asked for something else and they've obliged. I've also had something else and had to rebook a blood test as it was after 10.

I wouldn't automatically jump to a negative conclusion.

Her words to me were we don't really do that here, not I don't have time or you need a separate appointment. I popped in for 30 seconds (on a related matter) and thought I'd kill two birds with one stone.

She clearly just didn't want to do it, although according to their website it is indeed a service they provide still "

Urgh - that's terrible. I'd report it

People don't want to do their jobs these days.

That said, these things never go well for me either.....

I had a smear test done by a doctor a few months ago and was on my back with my legs in stirrups when he announced " madam, your ring is sparkling".

I replied " thank you for noticing " and he announced icily that he meant the engagement ring on my finger
