Is there a doctor in the club?

My new physician search experience. For your enjoyment.

Ring, ring (the telephone at the doctors office)

Receptionist: Hello, ________ Family Practice, can I help you?

Me: Yes, we recently moved to the area and I am looking for a new physician. I was wondering if you are accepting new patients.

Receptionist: No, our practice is currently closed.

Me: Okay. Well, thanks.

Receptionist: Well, we do have two female doctors. They have openings.

My head: what?!?!?

Me: So, you are accepting new patients?

Receptionist: Yes, if you want to see one of them.

My head: Yes, since I'm not a sexist maniac, I would love to.

Me: That would be great.

Time passes and I go to the doctor, and I take Tagg to the doctor. Each time she is wearing a legging/sweater combo that shows a lot of leg. Strange I think. Casual Wednesday? But, she seems quite doctorly, and knows how to fix what ails us, so that's good.

I go to the doctor for a follow up. She is wearing a purple mini dress that zips up the front, sheer tights and chunky green platforms.

The end.

Epilogue
It is two days later and I am still confused. Liked to go clubbing in college and is paying off student loans? Likes being a W O M A N? Doesn't want her practice to become clogged with fussy old people who think doctors should dress a certain way? Missed the class on physician protocol? Still don't know. I might just have to ask her.
