Someone entering the exam room while changing clothes

Has anyone experienced being interrupted while changing clothes in a medical setting?

Like I described in a different thread, I was told to change into my sleeping clothes for a sleep study. While I was changing the male and female nurses returned quickly (only a few moments after leaving) and stayed for a while asking questions and other things. I was pulling down my Tshirt while wearing only tight briefs. It seemed like they were caught a little off guard, but not sure if they did it on purpose or not. Being caught like that got me erect for a few....whoa...hope they didn't see.

The pajama pants were laying on the bed...after they left again I finished changing.

Yes, absolutely. I was left in the exam room with they typical instructions about the gown. As I was undressing, there was a knock at the door followed a second later by the door swinging open. It was the nurse with some questions about my paperwork. As I don't wear underwear, there I am, nude except for the one leg still in my pants. As a nudist, it didn't bother me, but the nurse was very flustered.

When I teach exam skills, I always stress about knocking AND waiting for permission to enter.

I recently accompanied my wife who was having a minor surgical procedure done at an ambulatory surgical type of facility... each station was partitioned by a curtain, and when the nurse instructed my wife to undress and put on the gown, she failed to completely close the curtain, leaving a gap large enough for anyone passing by to see my wife as she was briefly naked (save her panties)... Not sure if anyone saw anything, but I found it exciting just to have the possibility that someone could have seen her...

Last year when I went to my urologist for a cystoscopy. The nurse led me to the room and took my vitals. Then she told me to remove my clothes from the waist down and have a seat on the table. She said she would return in a few minutes. One of my shoelaces was knotted and it took me a while to get it undone. I had just removed my pants and was taking down my underwear when she returned. She looked at me and said "its okay, just me". She stayed while I finished and got on the table. No big deal because a couple of minutes later she was washing my penis and injecting an anesthstetic in my urethra.

I think sometimes they do it on purpose.

While changing into a gown prior to surgery, a young male wearing scrubs came in and watched unabashedly. I thought he had been sent to do my "male prep" so I turned to face him before putting the gown on. But he left after that, and someone else came along later to shave me. I think the guy had been tasked to make sure there were no piercings anywhere on my body.

No, they always wait forever before coming back in after I change. It's actually really annoying.

Years ago, we rushed my mother in law to the hospital E.R. well based on her medical condition she was admitted. Wife and I accompanied her as they kept her on the gurney with the nurses pushing it to her room.mother in law was able to sit up and walk. When they finally moved her into her bed they told her to remove everything and put the gown on. My wife was in the hall talking to her doctor. My mother in law didn't even close the drape, she was no more then 3 feet from me totally nude, she bent over so I saw her whole glory. She even asked me to tie her up? After that, she'll walk around the house nude? Yupp! She lived with us for along time until she passed. Will never forget her.

As a medical professional I am required to look at all of the skin on any patient admitted to my facility. This is especially important on anyone admitted from another facility, who is disabled, who has been involved with a traumatic injury. However I have also encountered those patients who want you to catch them in the process of changing. Even if you knock and wait for permission to enter you can find them naked, watching for a reaction from you. It is then up to you to act professionally

I bet this is true. When i go for massages, i know it's 60 bucks, but i always give 70 so she has to come back with 10. When she comes back with the change, i am stripped down to a jockstrap and will stay that way until i put the money away. If she takes a while to return, i stay in position to be fumbling with my wallet, clothes, putting socks inside shoes, etc. The object is for her to see me in the jockstrap, perhaps bent over, before stripping it off for the massage (where i'll be totally nude anyway).

When I went to a gay, presumed closeted, dermatologist, his patients all took everything off with no gown, and it was not unusual for the female assistant to come into the exam room ahead of the doctor when I was naked to get some instrument.

While in my twenties, two of my wisdom teeth had impacted and I decided to have all four removed which was done in a hospital OR. On the morning I arrived and was assigned a room, a young, seemingly teenage, volunteer "nurse" entered and gave me the usual hospital-style gown to change into from my street clothes. It couldn't have been more a minute later, when she reappeared to ask, "Are you changed yet?" I'd barely had time to remove my shoes and realized she was trying to find me nude. Showing my annoyance at her intrusion, I demanded more time. Had I been a male volunteer barging in on a young female patient in the same circumstance, surely I'd been censured. Her only task was to offer me the gown and I never saw her again. She was "hot stuff," but what angered me at the moment was the double standard that exists.

I had a follow up dermatology appointment this morning to check on how my biopsied spots were looking. I wasn't walked in on while undressing, but two separate nurses entered the exam room during my examination. I was only shirtless, so that part wasn't a big deal, but it was almost comical the amount of entering and exiting went on during my exam.

It started with the nurse who asked what I was there for. She then left and then the doctor came in. 15 seconds later, the same nurse entered. About 45 seconds after that a second nurse entered and seem to be shadowing the first nurse who was taking notes during the exam. The second nurse also got a ruler to measure a mole on my scalp when asked.

When the exam was done, the doctor left first, the second nurse left second and the first nurse gave me the billing slip to give to the front desk.

It was the most crowded and busy exam I think I've ever had. I wonder if it's standard procedure at my office for nurses to enter without knocking or if the nurses knew I was only getting s check of my upper half? The door opens up in a way that the exam table is mostly obscured, but I could see how it could worry some people. I wasn't uncomfortable at all, but then again, my undressing was minimal.

Nurses have interrupted me many times when I was young. Basically, the nurse was always there and sometimes even a doctor. I was getting used to it pretty well. I knew it was the standard. Well however, there were sometimes private changing rooms where I could prepare for a visit. Those were luxury. 😃

During my Company pre employment medical exam, in their own medical department, I was instructed go into a small examination room and to undress down to my underpants and socks. While I was undressing and without any warning a nurse opened the door and came in, just to place an examination form on the adjacent table ready for the Doctor. She said nothing and then went out. I thought at the time she just wanted a good look at a bloke stripping off, which was probably the case and not the first time she had done it. The exam with the male Doctor was in private, which did involve slipping my underpants down for a hernia check.

Too many times to count, over here you just carry on waiting or changing

I do find it fascinating the aspect of someone observing while one undresses for an exam. In my experience this has been the nurse unless when it was my mother growing up. At first, it had made me feel shy and awkward, which is still some of it, but I know what follows is more revealing and invasive. I guess the undressing is more like an appetizer.

While it's one thing in an exam room, I have felt much more vulnerable undressing if in a cubicle like at an ER and knowing the curtain can have a slight gap and you will be seen or depending upon the lightening, your silhouette will show. Both making it clear what is taking place aside from the very horrible lack of sound proofing as a curtain does nothing to protect what is being told to a patient. It's a very semi-public experience and one where over hearing is as embarrassing as being seen in my view.

It never happened to me. But it happened with my wife. She had to do a ultrasound transvaginal and when she was puting her clothes on, after que exam the nurse assistent entered the room with another patient. She got pretty mad about it and with reason. She wrote a letter to the admnistration of the clinic complaining about what happened.

It happened once. I was removing my undershirt and the doctor entered. The lights began to dim and the strip music started. The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack: To Live and Die in L.A. My doctor almost fainted. Well OK not exactly. I was removing my undershirt when the doc entered the room. In actuality I was having a difficult time undressing due to a shoulder injury. No big deal. I was not embarrassed at all. Others post such absurd fantasies so I would like to do the same.

Yes, for a colonoscopy. I was having trouble figuring out how to put on two gowns as instructed.

I didn't find the colonoscopy procedure at all fetish-feeding.

A related note: an older doc stayed in the room while I got undressed, and watched me pretty closely. He just told me, "Get undressed." I was 36 I believe. My two previous physicals with him had been with me in a gown, and was told to be naked underneath, but he was not in the room when I got undressed. This time he stayed in the room.

There was no gown offered, and none was in sight. I still remember standing in front of him, in only my black boxer briefs, contemplating whether I should ask him: "These too?"

Only when I was back at home did I think I should've just stripped all the way, and if he said something, I could've responded: "Oh, I thought that's what you wanted, since my last two physicals I was told to take everything off."

Unfortunately he retired after that physical.

Yup. It was at the end of a visit to a colorectal specialist, which was done with the doctor and a nurse present. I was left alone to change back into my street clothes, had just chucked the paper gown, and the nurse walks back in. She apologized, but I laughed it off. Considering the exam I just had, I don't think she could have had any illusions about me.

There are some medical examination text books that indicate that watching the patient getting undressed is part of the physical assesment. Watching how they disrobe can indicate a lot about range of movement and possible onset of breathlessness. The books do not of course mention that it can also be quite erotic watching someone undress.

Wow. Never thought of it that way. My docs always exited the room to let me change in peace. A couple times, they come back quickly - like within a minute- often while I am still fumbling with the gown. (I hate those gowns!) Both times, the doctor apologized and asked me whether I needed the gown or not. In this case I usually choose to decline it.

Haven't had the experience of someone coming in while I was changing but have had the experience of undressing to my briefs while the doctor is in the room. I have had only a few times when the nurse told me to undress to my underpants and then the doctor came in but just as many when the doctor told me to undress to my underpants and didn't leave the room. I have never been told to undress and put on a gown where the nurse or doctor didn't leave the exam room while I stripped down. The closest I had to being exposed to someone outside the exam room was the time when the doctor had me strip to my briefs and then left the exam room door half open while he went to get something. I was sitting on the exam table facing away from the door but anyone walking past would have seen a young guy in his briefs sitting there. The reception area and the door to the waiting room were outside the exam room door so there were more exposure than I wanted to other patients and staff. The doctor was an older guy so he probably thought nothing of leaving the door open. He probably thought that I had enough clothing on that anyone walking past wouldn't care.

Not me. I always get adequate time to remove everything and get the gown on before she knocks on the door.

Not in the changing room but while I was naked on my GP's table, his secretary came into the exam room. She wanted him to sign important documents. I was so ashamed to be exposed to these 2 people especially when they started to chat while I was naked! I had the impression she was looking at me showing my genitals to everybody. So embarrassing! and exciting too now that I'm writing about it.

I wasn't interrupted exactly, but once I had an appointment with a specialist I've only seen that one time and he had left the room to let me get changed. There was a small curtained cubicle in the corner of the room with a stack of gowns and I was supposed to undress completely and put a gown on. I took everything off then went to pull the gown over my head, only it had multiple openings each with multiple snaps and I got completely tangled up. I was extremely nervous about the exam and could not figure out how the damn gown worked. The doctor came back in and I was still flailing behind the curtain. He asked if I was ok and I said I was having difficulty with the gown and needed another few minutes. He waited in the room which made me more flustered because I felt bad holding him up. After another few minutes he asked if I needed help, I admitted I did, and he called a female nurse. She came into the cubicle with me and had to unsnap most of the gown because I'd managed to snap the sleeves together or something, and even though she was trying to keep me covered she ended up seeing my breasts. At this point I was very flustered and increasingly scared about the exam, and my hands were shaking so badly I couldn't do the snaps so she had to fasten them for me. Then finally I had the stupid gown on the right way and she walked me over the exam table. It was a weird feeling being watched walking across the room in just a gown because normally I'm changed and sitting on the exam table before anyone comes back into the room.

Not while changing but I have had the receptionist enter with some documents when I was bending over with pants down for injections.

Whilst at the physiotherapist with a back problem and stripped to my underpants and socks, I was sitting on the edge of the exam bed and the receptionist came in with a cup of tea for the female physiotherapist who was about to begin treatment. Not really embarrassing but a 'bit of a turn on' to unexpectedly be seen stripped off by two females together. The receptionist didn't really look, just placed the cup of tea on an adjacent table with her head down and left.

...and even though she was trying to keep me covered she ended up seeing my breasts.

This is that element of panic situation, where you feel embarrassed & under pressure, and it can be humiliating, in a situation where it seems helpless & hopeless. It's happening beyond your control, and it's at a point where someone has to come to assist you, and there's no avoiding the fact that inevitably you will have to be exposed to this person in the process of solving the issue.

There's an element of deja vu to this. I think i've seen something similar play out somewhere in a movie, and even perhaps real life.

I read this 2 days ago, and the mental imagery stayed with me. I must admit i derive an element of excitement from it.
