Hi Asya,
I am not a virgin, but I tend to spot bleed after paps. So I totally understand your wanting a doctor who will be compasionate.
I'm not in the New England area, so I don't know any OB/GYNs there. Do you have health insurance that requires you to go to certain doctors? If so do some investigation on them and if anything do a meet and greet before the pap to make sure s/he would be understanding.
If you don't have health insurance, try Planned Parenthood. I used to go to them before I had health insurance.
My regular family medicine doctor does my paps, so I don't go to an OB/GYN anymore. If you trust your regular doctor you might ask him/her about paps. Mine actually asked at the first visit if I wanted her to do my paps. Which reminds me I am way overdue for one.
I'm sending that nurse practioner you saw a cyber slap to her head for that thoughtless remark.
Good luck.
