Improper yeast infection check?

Question

Asked for Female, 20 Years

Doctor stuck her hand in and said I had a yeast infection? Is it possible to tell that way? Like it was my first time ever going there. I'm just trying to make sure she's doing things the right way because that didn't feel right to me.
