What can I tell my dad so he goes to the doctor to get a regular check up?

My dad needs to go get checked, he has not gone to the doctor since I was born, meaby years before that, I want fot my dad to be healthy and stuff but he wont go to the doctor. He sais no men is going to touch him because that makes him “homosexual” What can I say to him so he sees a little truth about why he should get checked, and that just because a male doctor is treating him, it does not mean hes gay and stuff like that. Is it possible for him to have female doctor do his check up?

Answer #1

Well, I suspect he is wise enough to know when he wants to go to see the Doctor already. Plenty of people do not like to, and actually think that it is a risk going to a Doctor unnecessarily as you may come into close contact with sick people who might make them sick as well.

Perhaps the best thing, if you are worried about his health, is to tell him that you are concerned about his health and fitness and would feel happier if he got a regular check up - just to put your mind at rest.

IF HE EATS RED MEAT, TELL HIM HES GETTING COLON CANCER!

Answer #3

Um, I dont think that is the best way to go, but thanks for the idea! :)

Answer #4

Tell your dad a man comfortable with his sexual orientation can go and get a check up without feeling “gay”. Make a vague implication that since he’s not going, he looks gay. But make it vague. You don’t have to actually believe that but if he gets the message it should give him a nudge in the right direction. Besides that you can research prostate cancer and the symptoms, feelings, and risk of death from that. Also I bet to treat prostate cancer doctors have to check him more often, so that could be an incentive to go. Some people never go and are lucky. To improve his chances if you never convince him (which I understand him not wanting to go, my reasons for avoiding doctor visits are out of fear of doctors, needles, blood, hospitals, the whole shebang). So anyways, make a pact with him that he has to eat an apple a day. They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Jack Lelane (search him if you don’t know who he is. He’s 95 years old but looks like he’s 60.) he lived by that apple rule and he’s super healthy. He’s also a health fanatic so that could affect things too… Just try to push your dad on exercise and eating healthy. This might be too awkward to tell him but a healthy, active sex life is excellent for this kind of thing too.

Answer #5

Get a list of things that could go wrong if he doesn’t go for his yearly check up and speak to him about it like a mature adult, tell him that he can even go to a female doctor if he is more comfortable, but that you would really just like him to go for a check up because you would like him to live a long life so that he can see you grow up and get married etc etc. Play a bit on daddy’s little girl, that generally gets them to do something for you. Good luck.
