      I actually say “lady doctor.” Because I do prefer a doctor who is a woman and “lady doctor” sounds fancy.

      E: Last male doctor I had told me that it was “just” an ovarian cyst and it “shouldn’t hurt that much” so I should take some aspirin and I’d be able to work tomorrow. So yeah. Lady doctor for me.

        But what if you are in country where aristocracy doesn’t exist?

          I do exist in such a country! But I was recently called “quirky” so I guess take my advice as you will.

        It was a genuine question. I have no argument here. I don’t know the best term in this situation.
