I would ask her out.  You only live once, and how many doctors are there that are ID's...   You don't have to worry about disclosure... D

Just dont pop the question while she has her index finger up your butt examining your prostate.

You can ask if you like, but don't be surprised if she says "no". I'm not sure if it's the same in the States, but here in the UK heathcare workers are discouraged - if not outright prohibited - from dating their patients on ethical grounds.

By the way, welcome to the forums. You might want to introduce yourself as there are quite a few members of the female persuasion who post here.

Yes it would be unethical for her to accept an offer from a patient I know this for fact .
 I have asked my id dr. to go to dinner with my other half and myself numerous times and am always declined on the basis of professional ethics within the medical community .
 Now what you might be abe to do is locate yourself aanother id dr ( if that's pozzable ) then that way you would not be in conflict with ethics from any one's standpoint and you can ask her out if not  go ahead and pop the question some time in the distant future ( if it should be some thing that will be will ake you noth happy )

Nurse, doctor, other sort of healthcare worker, it doesn't matter. It still goes against medical ethics to date a patient.

Indeed.

If it became know that your nurse had been having some sort of intimate or personal relationship with you she would certainly lose her job. She'd almost certainly be de-registered as well.

Hi pix

What Ann and Matty said..I have seen young Nurses lose their jobs because of this, unfair I know but it happens, I had to transfer a young nurse to another department because of this.
