Yes, why wouldn't he? If you're self conscious about it, then get a girl doctor, goofy.

First of all if your doctor is a male, by law a female nurse or female relative(example: your mom) must be present in the room with you while you are being examined.
I don't know how old you are, but if you're getting a complete physical, doctors do feel your breasts for breast cancer and to make sure you're developing normally. I started getting complete physicals that included breast exams and vaginal exams at age 12(after my 1st period started). If you are under 18, a vaginal exam usually just includes visually examining your outer vaginal area for any abnormalities and then sticking a finger inside your vagina to check for infections or abnormalities. That is all they do unless you've been having problems in that area.
Just wait until you get older(18+ and/or become sexually active). That's when you get the oh-so-lovely pelvic exams and pap smear tests. If you really feel that uncomfortable with your current doctor, ask for a female doctor. He will understand.

No, he's going to stuff some seahorses up into it.
If you're not going specifically for a gynecological exam, he shouldn't need to "look at your vagina." But you probably could get a breast exam, and learn how to do them yourself.
If the doctor's a gynecologist, then, yes, he'll need to look at your vagina. Don't feel ashamed. No doubt he's already seen a million of them in better or worse conditions and probably delivered babies out of them. Your vagina is no more special and magical than anyone else's. Stop being so nervous and defensive and overreactive. Responsible women get their vaginas looked at at least once a year.

It's part of a normal exam (although no pelvic exam (inside) should be required if you're under 18 and not sexually active). It's normal to glance at the goods and do a breast exam, but you have the right to have a chaperone in the room (in the USA). Even better, go to a different doctor for this stuff.

First of all a nurse needs to be present on these types of exams and he has no business touching your breasts unless you are there for a complete physical. these are usually done once a year unless you have problems. you can always go to planned parenthood or get a female doctor if that makes you more comfortable. If he is doing this without a nurse present . report him asap

If your under 18 years old, your doctor shouldn't exam your vagina or breasts unless you have something wrong with them. When you turn 18 or you start being sexually active, then you will need to start going to a gynecologist for your annual exams of your vagina and breast. You may also choose a woman gynecologist. Also, when your privates are being examed there should always be a nurse in the room watching what the doctor is doing so a doctor doesn't violate you.

Your doctor might do a pelvic exam and he might also examine your breats. These are necessary annual exams for any woman. But there should always be a third person in the room at the time.

You should talk to your parents about it that you're very uncomfortable with him. I suggest trying to get a woman doctor.

There is no reason for you Doctor to do a pelvic exam UNLESS you specifically request one.
PEOPLE: FEMALES DO NOT GO TO THE GYNO BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING THROUGH PUBERTY. THIS IS HER REGULAR DR. (HER PEDIATRICIAN) SHE IS TALKING ABOUT, NOT A SCHEDULED GYNO VISIT.
