Hi All.
After I'd had my radiation treatment for my prostate, I had to go back for monthly visits to the clinic. on one occasion I was asked by the Oncology Professor if I would mind if a young intern could do the finger job, I said I don't mind they have to learn somehow, he brought in this lovely young woman of about 24 I got on the bed and got ready, then thought just a minute and asked could I look at her fingers but it was OK her nail on that finger was short, but any of the others would have had me feeling very queer.
Cheers Des

Hi shipmates . Talking about female doctors have any one watched on T.V. Embarrassing bodies? and the lovely Doctor Pixey, She is an expert in all male probelms and done a prostrate exam on T.V.. Why dont she do home calls in the U.K.? just because she works in Ireland !!!! very unfair.
