Do you think your profession has helped you get a date?
Yes. Hoards of Jewish men are interested in me. I'm supposed to make their Jewish mothers happy.

I've read that psychiatry has the highest divorce rate among doctors. Any idea what specialties are the best in bed?
I was with a pediatric urologist once. Wouldn't recommend. I haven't ranked the others yet. Maybe a double-blind study? Doctors get off on graphs and charts. I'd love to see something like this presented at a national conference.

We've seen what happens in the call rooms on Grey's Anatomy. What happens in a real hospital call room?
A little bit of everything. Lesbian gynecologists tend to have a lot of fun in there.

What do the contents of a medicine cabinet tell me about my date?
Fear of germs. Hypochondriac tendencies. Addiction to homeopathic medications. If you find his misplaced stamp collection he may be a secret philanderer.

I've hooked up with a guy a few times, and I'd like to have "The Talk," but I'm not sure how to initiate it, since I don't want to scare him off. Any suggestions?
Don't hold back. Open your mouth and let it fly. If he flies away he was never yours.

I went on a really great first date and I haven't heard from the guy. How long should I wait before contacting him? Or should I just let it go?
If a man doesn't contact you within the next forty-eight hours, he's probably not into you. If he really had a great time, he'll probably be calling or texting you within the first day. But there's no reason you can't call him if you're into him.

I've read that psychiatry has the highest divorce rate among doctors. Any idea what specialties are the best in bed?
I'd have to say chiropractors — the name, which is Greek, translates to: chiro = hands, praktik = use of. . . And even better are chiropractors who practice yoga. My clinic has an on-site yoga studio. Flexibility is very important!

My girlfriend is completely silent during sex. Any ideas on getting her to relax and be more vocal?
Talk to her and find out what she likes to do, and focus on her needs. Maybe when she realizes that you're paying attention to her and being considerate she'll loosen up a bit.

What erogenous zone is most underutilized?
I suspect the P-spot — I'd guess that most guys are too inhibited to ask for it and many women are too grossed out by the idea.

I nicked myself while shaving in a guy's bathroom. Is it okay for me to peek inside his medicine cabinet and look for a Band-Aid?
I would ask your guy for it — everyone wants to be a hero coming to the rescue. And it might even turn into a good game of playing "doctor."

What's the best thing about dating a doctor? The worst?
Best: He's always going to know EVERYthing about your anatomy. Worst: He's always going to know EVERYthing about your anatomy.
