How To Identify The Credibility Of A Doctor?

I'm going to a new doctor. My former dr. always requested that I strip completely to my shorts for an exam, I assume so that he could look me over thoroughly. My new dr. usually doesn't even have me take my shirt off. He relies more on blood tests. Should I be concerne?
