This is a true story, with the conversation to the best my photographic memory allows. Throughout the story I refer to my lover as "Dr. Connie", using only her real first name since she's still a practicing physician, and we still see each other. In fact, I have an "appointment" with her a week from tomorrow (as of this posting). As always, I encourage feedback, including any mistakes in spelling/grammar. But please be courteous, rudeness doesn't go far with me. Thanks, and hope you enjoy!

Middle age seemed to be catching up to me, despite my best efforts to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Genetics, I suppose. In short, I found myself hospitalized for several days while the doctors debated whether or not I'd had a mild stroke. Though they couldn't decide on a diagnosis after three days, I was instructed to see my family physician to prevent a reoccurrence, and released.
Trouble was, I didn't have a family physician. Call it arrogance, or whatever, but appears I now needed one as soon as possible. On the recommendation of a female friend I made an appointment with Dr. Connie. When I finally met Connie I was pleasantly surprised. She appeared to be in her mid- to late-thirties, was of Southeast Asian heritage, and more than easy on the eye. Connie was a very attractive woman in a number of ways, and I was particularly drawn to her friendly demeanor.
Okay, yeah. That and her looks. Tender smile, trim figure, about five-four in height, she wasn't wearing a lab coat, simply a nice white blouse and dark slacks. The slacks outlined a very shapely ass, however the blouse had me guessing the size of her more than ample, for her height, breasts. Oh, did I mention she had long black hair and deep, sultry dark brown eyes?
We made small talk while she performed the physical part of the exam, with routine questions and answers about medications and diet. To put me at ease she told me not to worry, she'd seen and heard just about everything and anything, so nothing I told her would be a surprise. We just wanted to avoid a repeat hospital visit, and for me to stay as healthy as possible.
After the physical portion was complete she began asking a series of more in-depth type questions. Most were mundane as I'm sure she was checking the blocks and eliminating any issues surrounding my "episode."
I caught myself staring at her as if in a daydream when I was startled by the silence in the room, with Connie looking at me as if expecting a response.
"I'm sorry, my mind must have wandered, could you repeat the question?"
"I was asking you a personal question of a sexual nature. Do you think you have a healthy sex life?" she repeated.
"Well, a person could always use a little more, right," I responded glibly.
"It's an individual call," she replied matter of factly, "Some want more, some can do without. By your answer you appear to be in the first category, correct?"
I felt my face reddening, and decided quickly I'd probably only embarrass myself if we engaged in further verbal fencing. Best to keep this friendly, but professional.
"Don't be embarrassed, we all have our individual and specific needs," she stated while appearing to enjoy teasing me with her words.
"I see you live alone," she continued, "Is that right?"
"I am single, yes," I replied. "Although I have had both short and long-term relationships, as well as an occasional houseguest."
I thought I saw her eyebrow quickly rise and fall back into place.
"Any performance related issues? Bladder or prostate problems," she asked.
"Nothing I'm aware of with either of those two, everything seems to be functioning well," I stated.
Then, for some reason I felt the need to continue. "I'm certainly happy with my performance. They, um...she...um...everyone else seems pleased as well," I stuttered embarrassingly, immediately regretting my choice to keep talking.
A slight smile came to her face as she continued to look down at her pad and make notes of our conversation, before pausing and looking up at me while lightly tapping her pen on her chin.
"I'm going to order some extensive lab work," she stated. "A little more in-depth than you received in the hospital, just to make sure."
That was an open-ended statement, I thought to myself. Make sure of what?
"Sounds fine," I replied, "I'm sure a few more pokes won't hurt much," as I tried to smile believingly.
"My folks will be in to draw the blood and collect a urine sample," Connie said. "I'll have the lab results back in two weeks, can you make another appointment a for month from today?"
"Sure, that shouldn't be an issue," I responded.
As she stood I quickly rose to my feet.
"It was very nice meeting and talking with you," she said, "Take care of yourself and see you back here next month, okay?"
I extended my hand, which she took, and I felt a soft, feminine, but firm grip. "I look forward to it. Thank you for seeing me, Doctor."
We probably held our grasp longer than needed as we looked into each other's eyes before she finally spoke, "My pleasure. Take care of yourself," she repeated as she softly and slowly released my hand from hers before turning and leaving the room.

I was quickly into my usual daily routine, and the time seemed to fly by rapidly when I found myself back in Dr. Connie's office. Or more accurately, one of her examination rooms. I stood as the door opened and Connie walked in.
Extending my hand, I said, "Good morning doctor," in a tone which let her know I was pleased to see her again.
And I was pleased. While she was wearing the same basic outfit as my previous visit, her blouse appeared tighter, which accentuated all her curves and protrusions.
I quickly looked up at her face as she said, "Hello, it's good to see you," as she took my hand into her warm palm.
As we held each other's hand I noticed my thumb brushed up against her diamond wedding band. I responded with emphasis, "It's good to SEE you as well," as I released contact.
"You've gotten a little sun since your last visit," she observed.
"Oh, yeah. I do a little gardening and walk as part of my routine. But I try to be careful with overexposure."
She smiled and sat across from me, opening my record and reading for a minute.
"Your lab results look good, you're doing well for someone in your age group. Slide over here, we can review them together as I explain each result."
I tried not to be distracted by her honeysuckle fragrance while peering at the prominent mounds under her blouse as we both looked down at the results. Most of what she said was medical speak. But my takeaways were I had a healthy prostate, near-normal blood pressure, and no sexually transmitted diseases.
Connie then asked how I felt.
