Need a little in site please.

Ok well first of all I've been to the doctors 5 times....Ive had my penis examined those times for warts and other problems that I thought I had. All times the doctor said that there is nothing wrong. I've taken key to these direct quotes from the doctor. After the exam I feel better and more calm. But I read and see pictures of HPV and it freaks me out. Just a few questions, thank you.
1. Do most wart like lesions look like cauliflower and are those the most common?
2.Would a doctor refer me to a dermatologist if he thought there was a problem?
3.Do most warts look like they are not part of the normal skin anatomy.
4.If these bumps that I see on my penis. Will the doctor see them also or is it just kind of like a look and see if they see anything but not close enough?
5. Can I trust my doctors opinion? if he's not a dermatologist?
6. If I've been examined 5 times and each time he says no do you think I should respect his diagnose?
7.If I do ingage in sex should I tell my partner that I am clean? Just to make myself feel better? also her?

Thank you sir,

I think you can rely on your doctor, who would know whether to send you to a dermatologist.  You can usually tell a wart by looking, with no additional testing.  So yes, I think you should respect and accept his diagnosis, and that you don't need to tell partners anything, since you didn't have it, apparently.

Best.
