Revealing a Woman's Awrah to a Doctor
Is it permissible to reveal the awrah for treatment in a gradual manner, so if she cannot find a Muslim female doctor, she goes to a Christian female doctor, and if she still cannot find one, she goes to a Muslim male doctor?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Do not go to the doctor unless there is no Muslim female doctor available, and do not expose your private parts except to the extent necessary in the presence of mahrams, for example, and God knows best.
