Chelee,
My doctor was much more through. When called back because of a question on my mammo, he actually poked both breasts with one finger--FIVE times! And pronounced me as fine! Don't know what he thought he was doing. I helped get him fired by my complaints.

My medical oncologist is not very good though I said I valued a good breast exam when he first took over the practice. He was young and read up on it. He quickly forgot what he read. My surgical and radiation and gyn oncologist all give good exams, that heavens!
