A family doctor is fine and so is an OBGYN.
If you have genital warts though, then that means you have HPV. Some kinds of HPV can lead to cervical cancer. So, I'd suggest you see a OBGYN if you can. An OBGYN can look at your cervix and keep an eye on it for any signs of cervical cancer.
Good luck!

Please see your OB/GYN. Genital warts are very serious and can cause cervical cancer. So make an appointment ASAP in the event that something is lurking they will be able to treat it early. However there is no " cure" for gential warts they can only be surpressed much like herpes.

A gynecologist treats you.Please try to go as soon as possible, and avoid having relations until you see the doctor.
Good Luck

Just about any doctor can handle them. What the heck about you though? You both need an appointment. Go see a GP or hit an STD clinic together.

Go to your family doctor and he/she will check it out and then refer you to the appropriate dr. Most likely an ob/gyn. Get it taken care of.

I went to my gyno, but you can probably go to a regular family doctor. Don't be ashamed, at the same time- you have the right to keep your medical issues private- don't be ashamed of that.

Pop in you gynecologist's office. Not a big deal - she sees this all the time. Don't berate yourself... just go get it treated.
