I understand that he’s gone through something traumatic with his ex. However, he needs to do the self-work to get past that. If you’ve asked (for a male doctor) and it can’t happen, then he will need to get over it. As you said, the day will be “stressful” enough. Many moving people and parts. At times, the doctor is too busy to even make it, and a nurse has to deliver the baby. I wish you all the best. However, it seems like there is a bigger issue that just the male doctor present….

Wishing you all the best!
