"No dignity given"

About: The Royal Victoria Infirmary / Gynaecology

(as a service user),

Went in for a internal procedure of private parts. All was well, female consultant and nurses, so felt at ease.

Then a male doctor came in supposedly to look at the camera screen, having a real good look at my bits, and even touched my leg inner thigh which is not what I was expecting. He had no gloves on or mask and I'm there baring all, unable to move and in a lot of pain so was helpless
