I think this discussion is becoming a little sexist and way too general.  I've
seen two peoples opinions saying that 'women doctors are best' and
'women should patronize women doctors'.  This is ridiculous.  Sex
should not be the sole reason you choose a particular doctor.  There
are some VERY good men doctors in the world and I'm sure there
are some very poor women doctors.

Don't fall into the trap of generalizing and categorizing people
based on sex alone - isn't that exactly the opposite of what we
should be striving for?  People should be assessed on their merits
not strictly on their sex.
