Get another doctor.
I wasn't in the room so I can't tell you whether you "should" be upset or whether the experience is jaded from your past.
I can tell you, from working in the medical field, that its easy... even if its not proper... to simply do what you need to do to move through the "task at hand" and not have the context of the patients state of mind involved...
I'm not saying that its right... I'm saying its possible that your doctor did nothing that he intended to be inappropriate. I know you are rattled by this experience.
The fact that you have a past that sensitizes you to this isn't necessarily something that a doctor would know, unless you tell them.
My advice is to always be your loudest advocate. Don't assume anything. A good doctor can make dumb mistakes. A poor doctor needs to know what he/she is doing wrong.
Sorry things happened this way...
Personally, when things haven't been handled right in my family, we've asked to talk to the doc afterwards. Sometimes our concerns were handled well.. sometimes it ended up with our transferring to another clinic.
