why do doctors leave the room while you get changed?

Answer 1

So they don't get charged with Sexual harassment.
Duh!

Answer 2

1.) To protect your modesty, as not everyone is comfortable with the idea of being watched while changing.

2.) To protect their own modesty. Although doctors are accustomed to see the (semi-)naked body, they may or may not be comfortable with watching someone get changed.

3.) To protect against lawsuits. No doctor wants a lawsuit from a patient who claims they were gawking while the patient was getting changed (whether it is true or fraudulent).

4.) It's a little bit of time they can use to quickly check up on a nearby patient.

Answer 3

Do you really want someone starring at you whilst you get changed....? May be they have something better to do when you are getting changed like for example

1) Communicating with another colleagues
2) Reading your patients records
3) Getting other patients prepared
4) Making a short phone call
5) Just giving you that privacy,
6) For chaperoning purposes

Hope this helpsl

Answer 5

To preserve your modesty. Do you really want to get changed in front of your Doctor?
