I have had really good experiences with both. I think it is more of a preference. I have four children and another on the way, so I don't really care which gender looks down there anymore. I feel like everyone has seen it anyway...lol

I think a females "bed side manor" is a lot better in most cases. Women tend to be more sensitive as where men tend to be more abrupt and quick to be done with you. In my experience that is !

I have had both. The practice I go to has 2 female MD's and one male. And he is funny as hell. Everyone loves him. The 2 female docs are real good too.

Gee, i'm not sure that a penis/vagina litmus test is a very good measure of a Dr's skills.

my last doctor was male and i dont really like him, but im most likely going to him again for this pregnancy, but part of me wants to find a nice lady doctor!
