am a bit shy on seeing providers due to skin condition (not contageous) otherwise fine...how do providers feel and deal with such things. am visiting next week and am leery..pls help

No need to be shy ,  what tpye of condition are you talking about ? rashes ? pimples ? other ? Are you 100% sure it is not contageous ?
Is it all over the body ? only certain parts of  your body .? More info may help .

There's no need to post such a private thing here in a public forum. I would suggest emailing a few providers about setting up an appointment and explain to the provider what the condition is, and possible a link so they can do some research on it. For example some girls might not know what "psoriasis" is or what it entails. Most providers won't have a problem with it if they are well informed and feel not at risk.

yeah I didn't make myself clear I didn't mean for him to make a public post ...........I was thinking he would email ladies in private I was just giving examples of questions ladies would have for him ...............last time I am going to try to post while talking on the phone and watching American Idol LOL LOL

nor do I play one on TV.

I would think giving them advanced warning of the condition when booking the appointment so they aren't taken by surprise.  A surprise like this one is not something they want to encounter.  Knowing about it up front (and in your case, where it affects you) will help them work past your malady.
