    No, but doctors are generally empathetic people. When I turned 45, I needed the exam for the first time. When I was bottomless and bent over the table, I told my doctor that I was very nervous about it.

    He said to just try and relax and he placed a hand on my right should to reassure me. When the exam started, I said I was still nervous and so he placed his other hand on my other shoulder to continue to reassure me.
