We'd like to find out more regarding the nine-doctor exam, to help reduce our discomfort and potential embarrassment.
Apparently, you wait in a room and medical professionals come in one-by-one to exam you according to their individual specialty.
But what really happens during the exam...
Do they...
- Simply ask you questions via your translator?
- Perform ultrasound or x-ray scans?
- Make you strip naked (in front of your translator?!)
- Do invasive (penetrating) physical exams?
- Check your body to confirm surgery scars?
- Massage your body and/or head shape to feel for anything unusual (some Russian doctors believe in physiognomy...)
- Go through a checklist to uncover anything that might have been missed in your previous medical report (the one signed off by your family doctor)?
Thanks very much.
