I am a young 60's woman who went to Dr. Herzog a year ago after my regular gynecologist retired after 60 years of practice!!! I don't mind a man doctor, but I do mind not being told you're going to put your finger in my rear end and proceed with a pelvic exam while having me hoisted on your finger and making small talk about whatever unrelated to gynecology conversation we were having minutes before!!! He clarified when I questioned the discomfort and surprise "attack" that he could do a better and more accurate examination by doing this rectal exam. No other gynecologist/obstetrician had ever done this to me before, and I was extremely upset and offended by the lack of permission/prior explanation. He looked pretty creepy while he did this and I truly didn't buy his story, especially because there were absolutely no signs, concerns or reports that necessitated this kind of exam! Needless to say I do not want him up my butt again, and will never see him again. He might be experienced and knowledgeable in his field, but unprofessional, rude, and dismissive better describe him.
