More a WWYD.
This all happened 17 years ago.
When I was pregnant with my first child I went to my GP surgery. My GP was on maternity leave so I saw the other GP. He asked me all sort of questions about how the pregnancy was going and then asked me to stand and he touched my breast. His flat hand on my breast. I can't even remember if he grabbed it as such. It seemed really random so I said to him "can you stop that please. It makes me feel uncomfortable". He stopped and it wasn't mentioned again. At the time I thought it was odd but didn't really dwell on it. I thought maybe that is a standard check when you are pregnant.
With hindsight I definitely think that this was totally inappropriate. I was fine to stand up for myself in that situation, and don't feel traumatised or violated. I mainly just feel pissed off that he thought he could just touch me like that.
However, this GP most likely will have done this/similar things and possibly worse to other women or even girls. And that's what makes me think I really need to report this.
I moved before my son was born, so changed GPs.
He is still in the same surgery and now the most senior GP there
What would you do?
And how do you report a GP and what will happen then? Will I be believed?
Part of me thinks maybe I should just make an appointment with him and tell him not to dare do anything like that again - but then that just seems silly.
WWYD?
And also - I am correct that what he did was inappropriate, aren't I?
