Actually, I would prefer a female. I think that female doctors are less judgmental and arrogant than male doctors. Not to sound sexist, but perhaps women's intrinsic mothering/caring instinct adds to their role as a healer/physician.

Well,- you've obviously not done much research have you? I suppose you checked out the  space program at cape Canaveral and found out ALL the scientists were women. How many mathmatical equasions did Mrs Einstien solve? I suppose every medical discovery in the world came from females? Off course all the automobiles were designed and invented by females, Mrs Ford in particular. Are all the worlds best Chefs women too? Are all lawyers women? Are all presidents and leaders female? All the people who build houses and design buildings an schools are women too - right?????? \nTHINK AGAIN....or try to START

Florence Nightingale is most remembered as a pioneer of nursing and a reformer of hospital sanitation methods.\n\n\nFlorence Nightingale made history with her nursing work in the Crimean War and helped shake up the field of medicine. \n\nI dont think they had specific nursing titles. but she did a lot more than just nursing frm what i read throughout the information. such as she invented the pie chart. I included some sights that i think you might get alot of information off of. I hope this helps you. :)
