I struggled with this at my dermatologist office. One doctor seemed upset with nudity, so I stopped seeing him and switched to another in the same group. When the PA was getting my info, I just told her that I was a nudist, and spend a lot of time outside naked, so I need everything looked at. She said she'd let the doctor know, and told me to get undressed, which I did. They have you cover up with a large paper towel, but I was otherwise naked. When the new doctor came in, he introduced himself, immediately scolded me for spending too much time in the sun, then asked me what country had the most tolerance for nudity. I answered Germany, and he said that's right. We had a nice discussion about the hypocrisy of the American attitude toward nudity while he looked me over. He gave me another stern warning about using sunscreen and demanded that I always wear a hat, then told me to come back in 12 months. That was 4 years ago, and I've gone back every year. I think the best way to handle this is just be up front and let them know. If it's a problem, find another doctor.
Always. My health care provider knows that I am a nudist. The lack of any tanlines dispels any doubts. She is very comfortable examining all aspects of my body. As a nudist I need a thorough check for any signs of possible skin cancer.
Same here.That is why I decided to wear underwear to doctor's appointments where I expect to be asked to strip to my underwear even though I never wear it otherwise.
Likewise. Doctor's appointments and most occasions that call for business casual or better are the only times I wear underwear, even when clothed.
When I go to the dermatologist for a skin scan they ask that I strip to my underwear. My doctor does a thorough job looking every where but doesn't spend much time on my butt or genitals (just a second or two). I think I should tell her that they are exposed to the sun often but so far have not said anything. Has anyone else experienced the same feelings?

The last time I went to my dermatologist I told him that I get sun where most people don't so he would know to check those areas as thoroughly as the rest of my body.
I accidentally did this once. I know what youre thinking, accidentally? How the hell does that happen? Well, I dont normally wear underwear and it was a warm summer day, I was running late so I just threw on my shorts and was out the door. Normally I would wear underwear for the doc and didnt realize what Id done until I was sitting in the waiting room. So after the nurse took me in, did her prelims, she told me to strip down and the doc would be in shortly. Well, I figured since my doctor had seen me naked before for the hernia exams, I just got naked and waited. When the doc came in he was visibly surprised and I apologized and explained that I had been running late and forgot to put on underwear. He understood but suggested I put my shorts back on. The rest of the exam was normal but Ive never forgotten my underwear since.

My primary doctor never has me take anything off.
The urologist has me strip below the waist for my exam.
For the cardiologist I find it more comfortable to take my shirt off for the EKG instead of bunching it up under my armpits so I just leave it off for the exam.
The dermatologist has me strip to my underwear and the cautiously pulls it aside one area at a time.
I have considered "forgetting" my underwear for this exam since I rarely wear any but I suspect he would be uncomfortable if I did so.
I have been nude at my doctor office for a full exam it was no big deal. He is a friend and knows I am a nudist and that I am comfortable being nude. Even his nurse Is ok with it. A couple of time when they had A group of student nurses in the office they asked if it was ok for them to be in the room for my full exam I said I was ok with me so he did a full nude exam in front of 6 Nursing . I never wear underwear so even If I see a different doctor/ specialist when I put on a gown and they say keep on your underwear I will always say I dont were any I have never had any one care either way. Its even happened when I was getting x-rayed they needed me to remove my short to x-Ray my lower back but keep on my underwear as I always tell them I dont wear any on female giggled and said nether dose her boyfriend and said she was ok with it. I have found its no big deal to them they are professional and have seen a lot of patience in all stages of undress.
