I'd say that "judgement" factor gets bored out of health care professionals after the first 7 million "private parts " they encounter in their work days. Unless there is something very unusual about a given individual's parts (say an unusual tattoo there, or rings through some of those parts, or even old injuries to those parts, an injury or illness that needs treatment, ) I doubt the health care professional will even remember what those patients' parts look like after the encounter.

And I'm equally sure the good docs don't engage in comparative private part morphologies!

This!

OK, I HAVE to put in this joke, I have been holding back long enough.

Guy goes to his doctor and asks "would you ever laugh at a patient's genitalia if there was something wrong with it?"

Doctor assures him that he is a professional, has seen everything, and would never have such a reaction.

So the patient drops his pants, revealing the smallest p*nis the doctor has ever seen. The doctor holds in the laughter, bites his fist, turns his head, and finally regains his composure.

"So what seems to be the problem, sir?" the doctor asks.

"What can I do about this swelling?"

I have no problem with it. My late wife and I both went to the same male family practitioner. She had asked him some kind of sexual question, don't recall what, but she said he seemed embarrassed and never gave her much of an answer. So not long after that it was my turn for an annual checkup, and she said when I get my prostate checked I should say, "Ohhhhhhh yeah, DEEPER!" When it came time, I told him what she said. I think it was the last prostate exam I got from him. (Got the blood check, which he said was better, and then he retired a couple years later.)

I've had male and female doctors examine my privy parts. No issues.

The only difference I'd say is that female doctors (I'm a male) are more skeptical when I tell them certain things. When they see my lab work, I always grin ear-to-ear because 99% of what I tell them ends up being true.

The most awkward visit? I had a brief hospital stay about 10 years ago. The hospital asked if I'd like to be interviewed and examined by a med school student. I agree and in walks this 25-year old Salma Hayek clone except this lady was a bit curvier up top and in the back. She's wearing high heels, a skirt and a button down shirt that can barely hold her.......uh......"joy." The doc has these librarian glasses and a really sweet disposition. We talked quite a bit after the examination as it was clear that she was relieved to be having a conversation with someone closer to her age (I was only 20 at the time). When she asked examine my privy parts, let's just say that having a football game on TV was helpful in avoiding embarrassment.
