I am looking for a new GP doctor and was hoping for some recommendations for a cool, monger friendly one in midtown. Any suggestions?
Monger friendly ? Thght they are all supposed to protect your privacy and not judge. Am am sure they’ve all seen their fair number of std’s...

Most MD will advise against this hobby due to risk. Also everybody judges. They might not say it directly to your face but their expression or body language will tell you what they think about it.

You want a male MD, prefably single and not religious.

Just tell the doctor you've got a new girlfriend who's a little paranoid and super health conscious
and wants you to get screened for std's before she'll commit to intimacy with you.

I think OPs query is a valid one.

My Jewish Argentine Doc retired and now I see a Taiwanese Taoist a few years away from retirement himself. Other than age, pretty diferent backgrounds, but neither a bible thumper or feminazi. Yet, I have had virtually the same conversation with each of them when they give me pushback every time I request my annual full panel. They say “Why?” I’m like “I’m a man.” They say “are you gay?” I say “No.” they stare at me. I add “The opportunity to have casual sex outside of marriage is irresistible when it arises and I wouldn’t blame my wife entirely if she felt the same way, so better to be sure.” They mutter “I’ll tell your insurance company ‘high risk activities.”

Maybe they are judgemental dickbags but I think mostly they are just anticipating the insurance company giving them a hard time. I’m comfortable with that conversation but I could see why some people would have a tough time speaking up. Especially if their significant others saw the same doctors (mine have not).

Can any one recommend a GP to me? I dont need "monger friendly" specifically, just good solid practice to actually use now that I am getting older. My last doctor moved away from NYC and none of the other MDs at his practice have appealed to me, so I figure I should actually see if there is anyone else to look at. Feel free to PM if you prefer. Thanks
