Well, I had my annual physical last week. The prostate portion took about one second. I asked the (male) doc how he could check my prostate in such a short period of time. He said all he needs to do is check for lumpiness/nodes and how hard it is. He said with practice that can be done quickly. He also mentioned that when he was in med school he pitied the guy upon who he did his first practice exam due to the length of the exam.
