Going to a Doctor in the Absence of a Female Doctor
A 50-year-old woman is embarrassed by the hair on her face. Is it permissible for her to go to a male doctor, knowing that there is no female doctor in the country to remove the hair with laser?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: it involves revealing and touching by men, which is not permissible. She must handle the matter herself due to the existence of special devices for that, or go to a woman. And God knows best.
