Would you date a female doctor?

[Anonymous]

I know it’s a weird question I just want to know

[Miristheiss]

It would just depend. Her being a doctor wouldn't directly affect me one way or another. It is a needed, important profession. Where it would just depend would be based on how a long term relationship with her would go as far our relationship time/family time.

Quality time is my top love language and I have bias against being with someone who has jobs that dominate our lives and would ever cause her to have to travel a lot or be so busy we couldn't see each other or to whether she would regularly get "called in" to where we'd have to just suddenly drop our plans so she could leave for work.

I just wouldn't be happy that way so I'd not do it. I wouldn't date lady soldier for example who is getting shipped off to other parts of the world and we'd go 6-9 months without seeing each other.

Some doctors have really hectic schedules and may be on call on the time. So, yes I'd date a doctor but it would depend on her schedule as to whether I'd be willing to go deeper and form a long term relationship or whether I'd think she's not for me.

If you are a doctor what is your schedule like, are you always on call and do you get called in all the time when you are off?

I have dated multiple. I work in a hospital as a (doctoral) grad student and dated residents (at least).

To all the people here who think it's amazing... it isn't. It's an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. I have never been one to care for seeing a woman on a regular basis but you can forget about seeing her... ever. Residents work ridiculous hours - think 12 hours 6 days a week at the minimum. Secondly, they age fast. The work gets to them. Thirdly, many female doctors face high levels of depression and come out of the woodwork as bitter people. Forget about Grey's Anatomy and a 'fun lifestyle' - prepare instead for a lifestyle lacking libido and a generally poor outlook towards... everything. Also prepare to be woken up at 3-4 AM every morning because she has to go to work.

Anyways I don't want to take it away from female MDs. There are some amazing women out there! In general though, it's nothing wonderful whatsoever. Also if you (as a man) don't hold at least a MSc yourself, you can forget about ever dating a female MD. Women don't typically date down unless they have emotional issues.

[Browneye57]

Here's the problem with a anyone you would date that wants to be a doctor, either gender...
You'll never be the most important thing to them - you'll always be a rung down the ladder of importance - never the top rung. A doctor has more important things, their career, their studies, their focus. So the date takes a back seat to all that.

I might date a doctor, I like smart good looking women. But if she never had time for me I'd likely go find someone else that does.

[0Kenny0]

if she wasn't like every female doctor i know, "head shoved so far up her own ass about how she is a Female and a Doctor" Maybe yeah i'd consider it, but i'd rather be poor and homeless then live a good life with a woman who brags daily about "How great her accomplishments are" even though she was born with a silver spoon up her ass and a platinum spoon
in her mouth

[doitson]

Fuck yes, i personally enjoy sophistication and class. It astounds me how many people are intimidated by and treat doctors, police and dentists different just because of their job. I think its facinating

[SeanNotShawn]

Id say yes, but I feel like this question is just bait to expose male gold diggers because doctors make a lot of money. Doctor or not id date them, if she has a job in general then she is hard working.

[Matt57]

Of course I would, especially if she wants to wear those hot scrubs at home like in the pic.

[davidrees]

For sure, I love driven, ambitious women, and one who does that while also helping people? Sign me up!

[IGotFlabs]

It would be challenging as most responses don't think about the fact (depending on type of doctor) may not get to be with their SO on a regular basis with crazy schedules and being on call.

[Sauron2099]

Absolutely, get married to one and the hospital bills will start to disappear.

[MajorEasy]

I'm doing just that right now... a surgeon actually...

[JSmith925]

Of course. Why wouldn't I? I have been involved with an ICU Nurse.

[mstryb]

I have and it was really hard. I'm not sure how much of that was because she was a doctor, but it's so demanding and stressful that it caused a lot of issues.

[Scarletbard]

Of course. I wouldn't care if their job was a cashier, or the damn president.

[Raajk1995]

Why not a doctor is the one who is the pillar of society to make the people live healthy to work for development together

[MasterAetos]

Yeah, I would. I have a pen pal who's studying to become a doctor, I think it's cool knowing and even dating a woman who's taken the Hippocratic Oath.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes i would date a female doctor providing if they would date me.

[dominic_drago]

I'm not letting someone's profession decide whether or not I like them. Unless they're a hooker or something.

[Surely]

I would, but you might not see much of her depending on her field of practice.

[Walrus_au]

If we got on well enough - the list of priorities in the pic would have me staying WELL away however

[eatadic]

Depends. I'd not want to marry someone who was gone all the time.

[SirBarristanSelby]

I would, but my doctor considers it unprofessional.

[fuzzylamba]

I see no problem, although I bet people will say to me "did you become a nurse to marry a doctor"

[xhihje]

Ignoring all the other factors that matter, I would have no qualms with dating a female doctor.

[Gream_69]

Yes why not? She's a female that you like and have fun with.

[Myplace22]

No. Doctors barely ever get time to do anything else other than be at work

[Anonymous]

I would but, I don't want her to think I'm dating her, for her money.

[szewczykkit]

I don't mind being a patient. Just no butt stuff

[Joker22]

Too stressful but if I love her I will

[KingDio]

Yeah no reason as to why not

[BobbyC65]

Yes I would my primary Dr is a female.

[ZeussLightningBolt]

3 of my crushes have been medical students so...
