ok u guys i have a ? for you and i need only honest replies, anyways,my doctor is an older dude and he has flirted w/ me since day one. i know flirting is considered ''harmless'' but the kind of stuff he says and does is not.. example., he will hand me something and snatch it back like 4 times before giving it 2 me... and called me at home about stuff that had nothing 2 do w/ my visit.. stuff like to tell me to enjoy myself and have an excellent weekend.. if im eating candy he will ask for some and tell me he is a ''candy freak"" and he tells me that he is the one who made my bloodpressure go down..along with staring at me and tilting his head all the time in this weirdo way, the last time i was there i gave him some candy and he was so frickin excited that he told me that he wasn't
done with me and to sit down and tell me something good about myself... oh and he said that he was going to have to ''fix me up'' for giving him the candy. is he being unethical? or am i over reacting?

He wants you worse than a kid wants to go to Disneyland...if it creeps you out-ditch him...if it doesn't bother you now-it will sooner or later...unless you find him, attractive.

RUN!!! The things he is saying and doing are not only unethical but bordering on truly strange. Otherwise, if you ever have to be anesthetized, don't be surprised to find him using his own "instrument", plus the red flags for stalking are all over the place. I would think about filing a formal complaint after you have found a more normal doc. Behaviour like that needs to be addressed.

Sweetheart it would not count if the guy is moral or no longer if it makes you uncomfortable he ought to chorus from it! If that is bothering you tell an man or woman that you'll believe. He can grow to be a large difficulty in case you ignore this yet in case you're taking action now then issues receives extra constructive. I had a health care specialist who dealt with me in a fashion i did not relish. He ought to seem down my blouse formerly checking my heartbeat and be quite aggressive with the exam. human beings gave me a difficult time about be oversensitive yet then a woman I relied on helped me and defined that he had no excellent to make me experience uncomfortable. i'm hoping you are able to keep away from any further circumstances like that!! solid success!

Totally unethical, I would seek another doctor before this gets out of control.
Calling you at home for anything other than a medical reason is a breach of the doctor patient relationship.

Both unethical and unprofessional. Unethical because from everything that you have stated I could not find any effort to actually help you with your medical problem. Unprofessional because it is primary duty to give you the best service for the value of your money. Why don't you change the doctor?

He is being very unethical. One thing is to be friendly with clients but this sounds like he is looking to get some "action" from you and its completely unprofessional on his side. Get another doctor right away and do not answer his phone calls any more.

This is still harmless flirting, as long as he doesn't literally state the intent of any sexual contact, touch in any uncomfortable way or anything of that nature that makes you feel just really uncomfortable. he may hint at certain things, but as long as ou don't tell him that you are not comfortable with it he will continue he will only go as far as you let him.

Yeah, that's really creepy and unethical. Doctors shouldn't treat patients that way. How could you be comfortable with a doctor who creeps you out. You are supposed to be able to trust your doctor. Find a new one.

If you like him, go out with him, if you don't and he makes you feel uncomfortable, change to a different doctor.
This sounds unethical what it is he is doing.
I dated my chiropractor once, but he was in college and so was I, and I just thought he was nice and he thought I was nice, so I was the one who flirted with him first. He didn't want to do anything unethical.
So he waited till I was out of the building to ask me out on a date.

I don't know that it is unethical per say. He is not your employer or your minister. But, if he is trying to flirt or just be charming, and you are uncomfortable with it, you can either tell him, or change doctors.
I would recommend changing doctors. He sounds like he is making you squirm a bit. You should not be uncomfortable with your doctor.
