How can i get in with a straight- foward physician for a thorough pelvic exam?

Your legwork: Finding a physician you are confident will listen/interact with you honestly will take your own legwork. Ask friends, schedule a non-exam consultation, or meet & great. With a little effort you can find a doc you are comfortable with & the rest should fall in line. Make a list of all your concerns before your initial exam so you don't forget any at the time.
