   Whoa this blew up big time. In the case of the Nurse that said it was her right to be in the room. When she was told to leave, she refused and as said she said it was her right. I asked the doctor, if he was over her or not, the doctor seemed to be ...

   Thank you ! We need nurses like you here... Many in my experiences take the "Im offended" stance. For me, I am comfortable with female providers as long as I am covered 100%, once it goes to genitalia, thats where I get uncomfortable. I would go t...
