Does the sex of your dermatologist matter for skin checks?

The last two dermatologists I had were men and I’m a woman. I’m scheduled to see a lady tomorrow for a skin check. I did not know it mattered to me, but now that I’m scheduled with a woman, I like the idea. Does it matter to you?

  1. It doesn't matter as long as they are good at their job. I guess I am not shy when it comes to my skin and getting a proper check up. Scott skincancer.net moderator

    1. Surprisingly it is ok. Hard trying to fix the bandage this morning. Oh well. lol

    2. Well, I’m sure you are up for the challenge. Scott skincancer.com moderator
