My doctor is absolutely gorgeous!!
Question Author
CD...well.............despite knowing the consequences, relationships with each other take on a dangerous connotation and knowing this, we still go ahead.

Does that answer you question?
he may be gorgeous Lottie - but would you honestly like it if he propositioned you or touched you up while you were having a 'knees-up Mother Brown' moment on the couch....?
Then you have to take the consequences. The last para of your question asks if we would believe that the doctor is being criticised and investigated. Of course we would believe it. The women don't have to be investigated unless they are making false claims.
Refuse to answer that question Salla on the grounds that it might incriminate me!! ;o)

lofty....I thought that you said goodbye.

lofty......again, I agree with all that you have said.....BUT....again......why do we do it?

Human relations....complex aren't they?
But seriously 'No' is the answer. Not in the patient/doctor situation and also because I am a happily married ladeeeee. If I was single and at a party then..............................................
Goodbye again. I'm just off the doctors......................
There are a few doctors I know, and who I've known ,who I wouldn't say 'no' to - but not with the doctor who treats me, and not within the confines of a consulting room (those couches are toooooo narrow.....!)
Yes sqad I would believe it.

It is a hair's breadth from feeling support from someone to imagining emotional / sexual attraction for them - ask anyone who has been an emotional counsellor for any length of time.

Just because patients make innapropriate advances does not entitle the doctor to take advantage of someone who is in a vulnerable state. If guilty, this man is a sexual predator, and should be struck off.
Question Author
Right

salla/lofty.....happily married or otherwise, if you found yourself in a situation whereby your "better halves" could never find out, both parties agreed that it would be a one off and both parties fancied each other.............then I put my month's pay that you would both go ahead........?????
Not really.

This is about a doctors relationship with their patient and levels of appropriateness and as such does nto encompass the full range of human relationships out there to be compared to and the subjective dynamics.

By definition the doctor/patient relationship exists within defined parameters and so acting out of that warrents investigation and/or censor either officially or personally by the doctor, (eg: why a particular case of patient has made you more emtionally/physically responsive than others). It's not really comparable to human relationships that are not defined within similar restrictions... Does that make sense?

For what it's worth this doctor should be criticised and investigated for making a mockery and tarnishing the reputation (because that's what all these bad stories do) of other medical professionals, he should never have allowed any of this to continue regardless of the temptations, he was very silly and wreckless.

There are doctors out there who are forced to do very intimate examinations by definition of their specialty and manage a) generally not have investigations of gross misconduct levelled at them and b) have a lot to do to prove they are not guilty of gross misconduct when a vulnerable patient makes a claim because technically what they've done could be construed as a sexual advance in other circumstances. It's a very fine line sometimes and it has to be carefully moderated.

F e ckless doctors like the one described in this post indulging in the alleged kind of behaviour described in your post put themselves in this position by their own stupidity and as such don't get any sympathy from me.
^ Doesn't she witter on...
Why do we do it sqad?
Because we want to.
Because the opportunity is there.
Because it's exciting.
Because it has an element of danger - therefore exciting.
Because we all like to be desired.
Because most of us have desires.

But - wanting it, does not mean we should have it, or make it right. Or wrong.
Like you said - human behaviour. Complex, confusing, contrary, incomprehensible at times. That's what stops life from being boring.
Question Author
CD...I. have already agreed with your reply, but I used Dr as an example of the dangers involved in socially inappropriate relationships and yet this situation is rife.

WHY?
I know my doctor...I'm friends with his wife. It is very weird being examined by someone you know.
Question Author
salla....the perfect answer........at last.

andy.......excellent answer.
Actually Sqad you are completely wrong. No I would not go ahead even if I knew I would never be found out. I value my relationship with my husband and I have too much self respect. I couldn't live with myself.

I am really going now.
You asked me if I would...Mmm not sure to be honest. I would definitely absolutely be tempted. But agreeing to it being a one-off? There's almost always someone who ends up wanting more...
If the other half never found out? Mmm... but I'd know.

I fancy a lot of people, but apart from one occasion I've never gone for a 'one-off' or a one-night stand, no matter how great the guy - not my scene.

But would I? Maybe :-)
Question Author
salla...whilst doing a GP locum to earn some dosh, it was not uncommon for a patient to ask for a home visit and when i arrived, it was obvious from what she was wearing and her attitude, what the home visit was for.
Surely you must have incklings of that in your practice.

Also it is very difficult when someone called for a home visit to organise a chaperone in order to examine her and one just went ahead and hoped for the best.......I mean went on to examine her and hoped for the best that she wouldn't cry rape.
