Author's note: Stories of embarrassed naked females (ENF) at the doctor's office are legion, and I love them all. Here, in a tribute to this genre, I've combined my favorite elements with a gentle and loving spin. I am captivated by the "doctors are people, too" theme and this story plays with the speculation: you meet a hot guy at a party but then the next morning he's your doctor and you have to strip for him. Like most of my stories, this builds slowly, so I hope you can enjoy it in a relaxed mood. There is embarrassment, reluctance, nudity, and groping, but no sex.

"You are late, ladies," a serious voice said. A serious voice from a good looking, dark-skinned young man sporting a long-tailed lab coat, with a stethoscope draped around his neck. Neatly pressed trousers falling to the midline of polished black dress shoes completed the picture. An angled clipboard at chest level and his upright stance with a foot out to the side, tapping, signaled impatience.
Michelle had walked through the big glass door first, and I was right behind, peering over her shoulder, still rubbing my eyes from being asleep only moments ago. It was sparkling early on a fall Saturday morning and the lobby was empty, as the clinic hadn't opened yet. We had arranged to be there at 7:20 am. It was now a few minutes past eight o'clock, which was the specific problem highlighted by the young man at that moment.
Michelle continued into the lobby and I moved up next to her, the door swinging shut behind us. I took a good look at the doctor who we had arranged to meet outside of normal operating hours.
"I am so sorry," Michelle had already started to gush. "We had, well, just about everything go wrong this morning. Didn't we, Beth?" She looked over to me, in a plea for emotional support.
I didn't respond. I was staring with my mouth open in great surprise at the young man in the lab coat.
"Eric? It's Beth. From Wednesday night." He didn't react. "Jeng's party?"
He looked away from Michelle and over to me. His face softened.
"Beth?" He looked down. "You're Beth Richards? Oh, ... I didn't know that you were this Beth." He paused, indicating his clipboard. "You are well, then? Getting ready for school now? It makes sense, then, why you are here. I didn't put two and two together."
"Yes, that must be me," I said, pointing to his notes. It was a pleasure to see Eric again, but in this context it was completely unexpected. "I didn't have any idea you were a doctor!"
Eric smiled, but only briefly. He did seem to be a serious young man. "Yes, here I am Dr. Champion. I'm an intern. In general medicine. But you can call me Eric." He looked over to Michelle who was watching this exchange with great interest. Then back at me with a faintly devious expression playing on his lips. "Or you can call me 'sir' if you want," he added.
My eyes opened wide and I instantly blushed.
I have to back up in my story to explain at once Dr. Champion's comment and my reaction.
I had just moved into McGovern this week, the large freshman dorm on the north side of campus. One of my friends, well, really a friend of my new roommate Sally, threw an off-campus party Wednesday night. It was a welcome change from the stress of packing all morning for my first year at college, followed by a long drive with the parents, and then lugging all my crap up four flights of stairs from the crowded loading dock at the opposite side of the dorm. It was late afternoon and I was taking a needed break on my new—and too firm—college twin bed, when Sally started talking up this party to her new hallmates with an enthusiasm that couldn't be ignored.
It turned out, to my pleasure, that there were a number of attractive guys at the party, many of them upperclassmen or even graduate students. I'm pretty shy in general, but something about the release from my life at home with the family, aided by two or three drinks too many, and soon I loosened up and became an enthusiastic member of the evening's social interactions. I was finally here, in college, and reveling in being part of a new community, with rules much more lax than those enforced on Connelly Street in Morgantown, West Virginia.
I ran to the kitchen to peruse the food offerings, and once there I started goofing around with Sally. Being the uninhibited girl that she is—and I saw more evidence of that as the year went on—she brought up all manner of topics with me, I think many of them just to shock what she correctly guessed was her very sheltered roommate. One topic was bondage and submission-domination. Spankings and whips and balls in your mouth and other wild things like that. I hadn't heard of half of this before this moment, and I have to admit that in my alcohol-fueled state, I was curious, and uninhibited, at least on my scale, and I drew the discussion out of her.
The circuitous path of the conversation escapes me, somehow dipping into medical fetishes, but at one point, Sally managed to goad me into a louder than appropriate response that went something like, "Yes, doctor, please I'd like another spanking, a hard one, sir!" right as a fantastic looking guy sauntered into the kitchen towards us. His eyes went wide open along with his mouth as he took in this scene of a gentle, somewhat short but pretty woman asking to be spanked. He just smiled and didn't say anything as he purposefully reached for the cheese plate. I turned beet red and looked down at my drink, which I proceeded to gulp down, rapidly. I hadn't been that embarrassed in years.
However, the party went well after that incident, considering. The attractive young man was of course this very same Dr. Eric Champion, medical intern, that was standing in front of us now, but his credentials were entirely unknown to me at the time. He politely fetched us more drinks and we snitched food from the party trays queued on the kitchen counters to be deployed to the party in the rest of the house. Sally's nonstop stream of gibberish helped smooth things over, and the three of us talked for an hour, standing right there in the tight spot in the kitchen as partygoers will do, like blood vessels stuck in a clogged artery, nobody willing to interrupt the momentum of the conversation to suggest moving somewhere more comfortable. Overall, it was a marvelous time.
It is strange that Eric made no mention of being a doctor that night. Perhaps he wanted to keep it under the table, so he wouldn't have seemed to brag. Or maybe it was my embarrassing comment that he didn't want to reference, for my benefit. We talked about State College, PA, what to do in the town, weather, life at school. He had attended as an undergrad and so we made small talk about Penn State. He was clearly older than me and possibly out of my league, but he was awfully dashing and I had clung to a hope of seeing him again. I thought about him laying in my hard bed that night and the next as I lay in bed, picturing his dark, serious face and his strong arms holding me tight.
It was right after that party, back in the dorms, that Michelle found out she needed the physical form for the tennis club. She hadn't bothered to read about it in the multiple information packets sent over the summer, whereas I had sifted through the details numerous times. Tennis was our passion and we had played every spare moment in high school. We didn't play at a high enough level for varsity, but it had been our plan to join the club team and then attempt to break in as walk-ons during the season. It was bad odds, a crazy long shot even, but it had been our dream for years.
But like in all good things, there had to be a hassle. In this case, it was the club coach, an old biddie who in the first meeting demanded that we have our paperwork 100% complete by the Saturday morning 9 o'clock sharp practice, or no club for us this season. I was frustrated why she had to be such a stickler for perfection in following the rules, and wouldn't bend an inch.
That's how we ended up at the clinic on our Saturday morning instead of sleeping in at McGovern. I thought I was all set with those stupid forms. I hate getting medicals and had very purposefully gone to my own doctor back at home, this nice middle aged woman who had seen my sister and me since birth. But when I got back from that first practice, I ransacked my whole dorm room and couldn't find my forms anywhere. I even phoned my parents to see if they could find them and send them to me, but no luck. So I joined Michelle in cursing the coach and we tried to figure out what we should do next.
The only plan we could think of was to go in Friday morning to the campus clinic, where we wasted a couple hours of waiting on stand by, in case someone missed their appointment and a slot opened up. But nothing doing. We both had to run to a mandatory freshman orientation that afternoon, and by the time I got back to the clinic Michelle met me in the lobby. Nothing available the rest of that day. But, in a snatch of victory from the jaws of defeat, she had sweet talked a receptionist into finding us a doctor who was willing to meet us Saturday morning before the clinic opened. We figured that was our last chance for our college tennis dreams, so we toasted to our future pro tennis careers later that night.
But then, in some sort of karmic fate, Michelle overslept and Sally accidentally unplugged my clock when she was moving in some of her things late Friday night. It wasn't until about 7:50 am that I woke up and panicked, running to get Michelle from her room all the way across McGovern. We ran over to the clinic as fast as we could, fortunately also on the north side of campus. So here we were, supplicants to a good-looking but annoyed young doctor peering at us over his clipboard.
He looked up at the clock and back to us. "The sticky note I got from Bev said you need these forms in by 9 this morning, right?" We nodded. I knew the deadline was in fact even tighter, so that we could have time to run over to the courts. "There's barely time for one of you." He looked around at the empty lobby. "No other doctors are here." He pointed his finger at the two of us, alternating. "Do you want to flip a coin, or Ro Sham Bo or something?"
I slumped my shoulders in disappointment.
