OK, instead of doom and gloom I have a somewhat humourous memory for you.
We got married in Tahiti and it falling under French law we needed to fill out a bunch of paperwork which included a medical from a doctor who spoke French.
Well, the only Dr. we could find was female, no big deal, I'm prepared for the inevitable "turn your head and cough" test. We get through that and the other tests and stuff and she takes my blood pressure. She says - straight faced:
"Well, your blood pressure is a little high, but that could be because we just did the scrotum exam."
Now there is a doctor with a sense of humour!
