You can find my favorite wearing panties to the doctor here https://www.crossdressers.com/forums/showthread.php?252176-Dr-Visit-in-bright-red-panties&highlight=panties
I think as in many other walks of life, Drs are not bothered. I have seen 2 lady Doctors and the local nurse whilst dressed as Sherry. A little bit of confusion to start and asking if I wanted anything changed on my personal details but nothing more. Made it easier when I requested a letter regarding traveling dressed.
I called my PCP pretending to be a new patient and said that I’m LGBT and asked if she is LGBT friendly and was told that she very much is. Then excited, I called my dermatologist and did the same and got an even more resounding Yes.
So I guess when I have my next appointment with my PCP in December, I will be wearing my pink bikini cut panties and next year when I go to the dermatologist, I may do the same. :-)
Thank you girls
I have always believed a doctor should see you as you are to understand you better. Medicos have seen my bra and panties and the only comment was "are you painting your nails for a reason?".
As I get more confident, I would like to do this well. Just recently traveled for Andrew days with only panties. Felt great knowing I had something feminine on the whole trip. Airports and all!

I have had varied responses from medical professionals over the years, all the way from a doctor refusing to admit me to the hospital because I was in panties (said out of my sight but not out of my hearing) to a "so?" reaction. But since I'm not really out to the world at large, I have adopted a philosophy from my years of having security clearances - if they don't have a 'need to know' then I'm simply not letting them know. So for me it's less effort to put on a pair of manties for the visit than to bother wondering about acceptance or reactions to what I'm wearing. A temporary wardrobe change does me no harm, and keeps the waters calmer.
On a visit a couple of weeks ago to a new (to me) urologist, I wore my bra (as always), figuring he was only examining my penis. Wrong -- it was a pre-surgery appointment, and he also needed to listen to my heart. He lifted my shirt to discover the bottom edge of my bra. "What is this garment?" was all he asked, and I simply explained I had large boobs (which I do), and I always wore a bra, but wouldn't have worn it if I'd known he was going there. He said nothing more about it. No big deal. I have another appointment next week and will wear a bra again, since he's already seen it and I have no reason not to wear it.
I have gone to my eye doctor a few times in a skirt, etc. as a man. No one mentioned it. Once, while picking up my glasses, I said to the lady helping me (we were the only ones in the office, I think), "Thank you for being so understanding." She said something reassuring in reply.
I have never gone to my family doctor while dressed or underdressed. Here is why. I had a friend who said they did medical transcription. That got me thinking... If my doctor wrote in my file that I have crossdressing tendencies and someone not in the room transcribes his notes, then my secret is in someone else's hand. I don't know why it does not bother me about the eye doctor in the same way. (This would not be my only contradiction!)
Once, I asked a nurse who had previously worked in an emergency room if it was true that a large number of guys wear women's underwear. She replied with a lot of exuberance that "a lot of men wear panties -- and pantyhose too! *I* don't even wear pantyhose!" She seemed to be laughing at them. She said that men come into the family practice office that we were in dressed that way as well. I asked her how common was it. She said that she thought it was one in every 10 - 15 men. (7%-10%) I would be shocked if she was correct. So, I have asked another ER nurse since then. That nurse was a respiration nurse (she puts the tube down your throat). She had never seen it before. Maybe men are covered up with a gown before she comes around... I don't know.
Yes I had my bi-annual checkup a few weeks ago and wore panties. I had to drop my pants for the turn your head and cough routine, doctor and nurse both saw what I was wearing, nothing was said. My doctor knows I wear panties and bras, she's seen me in them numerous times.
Over the last 30 years doctors and nurses in the office and ER a few times have seen me in panties and bras. I've only had a few comments made about them, one nurse said they were cute and my old doctor said "oh, OK" the first time she saw them.
It's like I've mentioned before, if you don't make a big fuss over it, my experience has been that neither do they.
I have a very good rapport with my PCP and her office as I've also supported their computers. She's also my wife's Dr as well as a few other relatives on her side. I'm usually the last appointment of the day and spend a couple of hours there between my appointment and us just talking as she wraps up her day. As I've posted before, I don't have any men's underwear any more. So for the last couple of years, it's panties every day. I can't say for sure that she or her assistant have or haven't noticed my panties or hairless body, but nothing has ever been said or any inappropriate reaction noticed but I do try to stay covered up. Of course, I haven't told her about my angst over my apparent dysphoria. Perhaps that will change at my next appointment.
Yes I have been to the doctor dressed and underdressed. Never a comment about my bras or panties or anything. Most anyone has said. My PCP asked if I was having sex with men and if I am They should be wearing protection.
Tomorrow is the day. Gonna wear my pink cotton fruit of the loom panties!
Sure, always. Once a new nurse was taking my vitals, me in only panties. She said they looked cute. She later said that when she first started, she was surprised how many men wore panties, but now she is surprised how many do not have a proper fit.
I went to a Veteran's Administration clinic recently for a CAT scan of my torso and groin areas, checking for possible kidney stones. A military veteran's medical facility. I was in male presentation and outwardly dressed in male-appearing clothes - unadorned women's jeans, a unisex t-shirt, and women's sneakers - but I was also wearing Vanity Fair Illumination string bikini panties in a Navy blue, satin fabric under my jeans. Once I was laying on the CAT Scan table, they had me pull my pants down to my knees, though they did drape a sheet over me first. However, as I stood up to get my pants back on after the procedure, I am quite sure the male medical technician was able to clearly see the panties. Yet he didn't make any comments or give me any strange looks at all.
My nails are also done as feminine shaped and colored acrylic nails, and I have pierced ears with simple 3mm gold ball stud earrings. The only comment either has garnered at that VA clinic was admiring, positive comments from the nurses, who loved my color choices for my nails, and wanted to know where I get my nails done!
On several other occasions I have gone to doctor visits while wearing panties. Sometimes I did need to disrobe, but when the doctor or nurse saw the panties, they didn't comment at all.
Hell-o Leah,
I wouldn't even think of (ok, maybe I'd think about
it, but it would never happen) wearing panties to visit
my optometrist!
Oh Geez! Now it sounds like I don't trust
my optometrist!
Seriously though, he's a good guy!
My medical care is to closely related to my home life
to even consider something so unnessisary.
Much Love,
Kristyn
Last time I went to the dermatologist for a full body scan, I went with painted toes, even though I knew that I would have to strip down to my skivvies. She always gives me the results of the body scan, and she did note (on my permanent record) that I was wearing toe nail polish. BTW, she (and her assistant) complimented me on my choice of color.
Why on earth would your dermatologist need to record for posterity that you were wearing nail polish? It seems like an unnecessary and potentially embarrassing breach of privacy to me. Medical records should only include information that is directly relevant to the health of the patient.

I can see the doctor's notes on this one ...
"Patient in fine health, all tests negative, and oh yes, he was wearing rainbow sparkle glitter polish on his freshly pedicured toenails."
I agree, sounds like a breach of privacy there. Why does the fact that you wear nail polish have to be in your permanent record? Unless maybe it was your own personal copy of the record, then she went back and edited that part out of the permanent one.

I have. Earlier last year, had a gout attack, I assumed the clinic would give me a Loratab or other pill form
Of painkiller. Nope, Tordol shot... no biggie, right? Except it goes into the buttcheek! No way to hide it, just own it. Nothing was said about the obvious panties I had on.
Hi Leah,
Is there any update? I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to know how it went...
