I gotta ask, since I’m totally lost here 😳
What’s the actual point of these swabs and when are they even supposed to happen?
I’ve seriously never had any kind of swab done in my life 😁
shree_kali said:yeah... since you were quoting about what it actually refers to???
The logical move would be thinking it's about those warnings regarding crappy gynecologists, but since I left my crystal ball at home, I guess the mystery stays unsolved... 🙄
Ugh, just bury me in ashes already 🙄
The quote wasn't even touching on anything remotely like your experience (which was, frankly, gross—glad you shared it with the group, though), it was actually reacting to that post about which doctor is screwing whom.
Look, honestly? I care way more about cutting this kind of nonsense out than debating whether some doc is hitting on her 🙄 apple doesn't fall far from the tree 🙄 attractive little thing.

Based on what everyone was saying on the forums back when I checked those old threads a year or two ago, I switched over to the clinic near the university hospital.
First off, this guy has like a thousand patients, so his "kindness" gets spread so thin it basically disappears by the time he actually talks to you. And when I say a thousand, I’m being dead serious.😁
Second thing—the appointments are timed so that every single person (at least according to his sister) gets exactly five minutes, including the Big Man himself.👎
Third, you can only book on the first of the month. If you happen to call at 1:39 PM (assuming they open at 1:30), congrats! You get an "exciting" appointment on the 23rd or the 27th. Everything else is already gone. I honestly wonder who he's saving them for.🙄 If you call on the 2nd, the slots for that month are long gone.😢
Fourth, the lovely nurse storms out into the waiting room and, in front of the entire crowd (and yeah, some guys are there too), starts interrogating people about what they need. I once piped up from the waiting area, "I need a referral for an STD test."😁
Just watch his face. Seriously. Whatever, man. What can you do?
Fifth, once you finally see the "esteemed" doctor—assuming he hasn't canceled on you because he's at some prenatal class or whatever, forcing you to reschedule two weeks later—he immediately directs you to his private practice where service is "fast and efficient."
Talk about a massive conflict of interest. But since the nurse clearly hates my guts, I'm not about to go tell him he's running an illegal side hustle. He wouldn't even look at me if I were on my deathbed.
Like I said, I haven't been seeing him in 35 years. It's not like my sister-in-law is best friends with his godmother or anything like that.
Maybe that's just my problem.
