it's important so tell the dr your a virgin and let her decide also your y
gynocologist should be a woman with a nurse present if you need someone u trust bring them. If ur dr has a problem with this i wouldn't let her check my bottom and legally u have the right to these things

They did with me, but it depends on your doctor.  Just tell them you never have had sex, and even if they do perform a pap smear, they will be slower and gentler and use extra lube.  Make sure it's a woman for that very reason.  Men?  Psh.  One experience with that was not good.  Either way, you will need to start having them at 21, sexually active or not.
