Reply To: Potential yichud situation at work

i actually feel quite comfortable around my patients. the fact that they are frum, eventho halachikly i am not allowed to “trust” them, they are the ones i trust the most! its ironic. sometimes i feel bad that i may make a single boy uncomfortable. it has happened in the past (maybe becuase i was still single then too). if people are uncomfortable with having cleanings by women they should only see male dentists who do the cleanings themselves and dont hire hygienist.

im still unsure if a male non jew is considered yichud. im reading a bunch of different posts and people are saying different things. so bottom line is i have to learn hilchos yichud becuase if everyone is saying that 2 girls and one guy is yichud, we had that situation tonight. as the non jewish receptionist and myself were still in the office and my last patient was a male and the dentist and asistant was gone already. if that is the case, i cant imagine i am the only one that has this potential problem. there must be other people who are working in an office that have a similar issue. im just curious what they do!?
