    RNMikeMiller replied to labordude's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I can promise you that there are hospitals and colleges that will not even let the male nursing student go to clinicals in L&D. That is a FACT! It is 100% Gender

    RNMikeMiller replied to RNMikeMiller's topic in General Nursing

    @NightNerd You made the choice to see a male OBGYN, but you could of chose a female OBGYN if you wanted. I bet that you will never have a male doctor and male nurse/pa alone with you during an exam,...

    RNMikeMiller replied to AmyB_NP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    @AmyB_NP I think it is best to opt out and NEVER have a female doctor or NP give a teen boy a sport physical again. This is what happen at my son's middle school last year. That is why he does not...
