I have long had a strong preference for female healthcare providers. They’re easier to talk to, and even the surgeons aren’t as arrogant about it as dudes are.
As to younger ones – well, like Frank, I no longer many other options…….
I have had women doctors for about 40 years now, because they actually listened to me with some respect for my opinion. Since the world has changed quite a lot in 40 years, I might consider a male now, If he were reasonably young. My new dog’s vet is a younger male, and he did seem to believe that I had a brain. But, I wouldn’t bother to try a male over 40. They just don’t believe women have a right to an opinion as to what is going on with their own body.
One of my brothers specifically went looking for a female dentist with very small hands. He says it makes all the difference in comfort for longer procedures.

The problem is not in the noticing, but in the thinking it matters. IMHO

Last Doctor I saw was a woman
Only problem for me was that she was good looking and that did make taking my clothes off a little weird
