You’re doing a good thing by saying yes whenever they ask if you are okay having a student or fellow observe. Especially for those awkward visits, like a rash on your genitals or a colonoscopy. Those are our future doctors!
I had a nasty infection on my foot when I was younger, like full on pus-volcano type thing, it looked and smelled terrible. The city I lived in back then was one of the biggest teaching hospitals in the country, when they asked if students could come watch I said sure, of course! Next thing I know there was like a dozen of them in my room, taking turn prodding the pus-volcano with a stick, cleaning it out (extreme pain), and just overall commenting on it and leaning over it super close. I’m glad I helped their education but damn was it awkward especially since I was about the same age as them at the time if not a bit younger if I recall.
I went in to get checked for hemorrhoids when I was like 22 (spoiler alert, I did not have them). There were two college students shadowing the doctor. I was asked if I was ok with them being there. My answer was a firm “No, doctor, I would prefer that these two women my age do not see my butthole today, thank you very much”
I went to the dermatologist to have my grundle checked out once and of course they had some hot young college student in there shadowing. Wtf lol

My friend had that at the proctologist
Sounds like a shitty situation
