It's weird that even these days people have the odd tendency to assume that a Medical doctor is a male.
Like if I go get an xray or a blood test and I am talking to the technician about when my doctor will get the results and they usually say "He'll get them by ~~~~"
Sometimes I correct them, but sometimes I just let it irk me.
My doctor is, in fact, a woman, as all of my primary physicians have been ever since I became too old to go to a pediatrician.
I've had a number of female doctors and one of my aunts is one. So yes, they are out there in a pretty reasonable number.
It's not really so safe to assume a doctor is a "he" anymore.
