driab2001,
With regards to before/after pictures of myself, I’ll copy the same response I gave to turbo_tt earlier in this thread:
"turbo_tt,
I don’t plan on posting any pictures. Besides, for a "before pic", it would take months for me to fully grow out the bush and hairy balls and dick to how it was back in 1999 before I started down the path of pubic hair grooming."
Like I told turbo_tt, I don’t want to go back to my jungle days.
For all of those clamoring for before/after pictures, the best I can do for you is to provide links to photos posted in The Dive section of this forum, with the thread topic of "Cock of the Walk." This should provide sufficient visual examples of what I’ve been preaching here in this and other related threads.

These "after" photos should give everyone a sense of what their package would look like either with a "do-it-yourself" shave and trim at home or after enlisting the services of a professional pubic hair stylist as discussed in this thread:
Professional Pubic Hair Stylists
driab2001,
In response to your second question:
"I also am curious, while on the subject, what kind of comments do you get from your doctor or nurse at your physicals? I think not knowing this has caused me personally not to do this."
I used to think the way you do. I started shaving my scrotum in the summer of 1999. Knowing that I had a complete doctor’s physical scheduled for the fall of 1999, I stopped shaving my scrotum a few weeks before the date of the physical exam. As it turned out, only my doctor saw me that day, no nurses were involved.
As the years went by, I became more comfortable with the shaved scrotum and trimmed pubic hair look. In the winter of 2002, I was plagued with very dry skin on my penis—possibly a fungus infection. My doctor examined me momentarily to diagnose the problem, I don’t think he gave it a second thought. I am self-assured enough with this look that I don’t care what the doctors or nurses think. If they are professional, they wouldn’t say anything derogatory to you. Besides, this is becoming much more mainstream in the U.S. with the television show "Queer Eye for a Straight Guy" on the Bravo network and the whole metrosexual trend getting a lot of media attention.
I say, if you like how it looks and it makes you feel more sexy and attractive, go for it. It’s a fun little secret that only a few people get to see and experience. As I go about my daily routine in business attire, I sometimes laugh to myself when I think, "If they only knew what’s underneath these pleated wool trousers!"
