Pictures taken by your doctor.

Before I had my surgery when I was young. my pediatric male doctor visited me in the hospital room He took my from my room into an empty room across the hall. He had a female and younger male doctor with him. Once in the empty room, the door was closed. I was wearing pajamas tops and bottoms. I was about 8-9. My doctor told my that he needs pictures of me. He took out a polaroid camera. He took a couple of pictures of me in my P Js. Then he told me to start taking my top off. took pictures. Then take my pants off, took pictures. then with help from the female in the room he wanted my underpants and socks off. No one could look into the room, the shades were down.Once naked he took a series of pics. The layed me down on a hospital bed, and took more pics. Once he was finished he told the man and lady who was present to quickly examine me. They did. the female was last and her stethoscope went immediately on to my lower belly. She was moving it around. once she finished I was allowed to dress and be escorted back to my room. I noticed him put the photos in his pocket.

Very interesting!

With all the hospitalizations I had when I was a kid, I never had a full physical in the hospital before surgery; just the doctor listening to my heart and lungs and perhaps feeling my abdomen.
