How would you feel if you found out your doctor was a prostitute/escort?How would you feel if you found your doctor was a prostitute/escort to fund their way through medical school? Would you feel differently if it was just for extra cash?
I know some people are bit iffy about cases like this, do they think doctors are meant to be some sort of gods and perfect? I personally wouldn't mind because it's not like they were hurting anyone and its affected they're capability to be good doctor.
Thoughts?
This is a link to an interesting article on the student BMJ about a medical student who did resort to prostitution

As long as they didn't earn their medical degree by prostituting themselves to the professors, I don't care.

Depends want kind of of Doctor tbh, but chances are I'd feel aroused.
What do you mean what type of doctor? As in if they're job requires them to do intrusive physical examinations involving the genitalia? -

Re: How would you feel if you found out your doctor was a prostitute/escort?I'd wonder exactly why they're doing it...it's hardly a glamorous choice of career...if it's because they can't afford to fund their way through med school, I'd be pretty saddened that we live in a society where money is constantly available for various idiotic people and causes but there's never enough for students...and this issue could get worse over the coming years:

But as for whether I'd judge them as a person or assume that they're somehow morally deficient, no I wouldn't. I'd just hope that it wouldn't interfere with their personal/academic life as like I say, it's not a simple student job like working in the SU. -

Re: How would you feel if you found out your doctor was a prostitute/escort?I don't know why you'd ever find out something like this?
Moreover, I don't know if anyone pursuing medicine would ever seriously consider prostitution, purely because if they were ever recognised their reputation may well be damaged. -
