I went to this doctor to get a second opinion on a persistent diaper rash. She wasn't able to diagnose what the problem was, but we later discovered it was an allergic reaction.
But at this appointment, in addition to being useless in getting to the root of the problem, she proved to be completely and utterly clueless about care of the intact child. Before I could blink or react, she retracted my son! In infants until age five or later, the foreskin is fused to the glans. Pulling it back is never ever necessary, is painful, can lead to adhesions, can lead to infection, and is specifically advised against. She then continued to prove her ignorance as she remarked that I "must be doing a good job keeping him clean as there is no smegma," when smegma is normal in both males and females and has nothing at all to do with cleanliness.
She is a young doctor so I had an expectation that she would be more current, but she is in the Stone Age as far as intact baby boys go. I hope she gets current as she could really truly do some serious harm. I will NEVER be back.
