I wonder how people would feel if an OBGYN refused to take any woman with an abortion in her history as a patient?

Anyone who owns a gun

Anyone who ever used to be an alcoholic

Anyone who is STILL an alcoholic

Anyone who has ever done drugs

etc etc

Now, personally, I'm fine with a doc choosing who they wish to have as patients. But, I'm fine with that because I'm ALWAYS fine with it. Alas, I somehow doubt our current legal system is always fine with it.

Yeah, sounds like they are at an impasse. Probably a good idea to move on...for both of them.

Sounds dumb and likely a ploy to get people vaccinated.

That said, no issue at all with physicians who are harsh with patients who decline to follow their advice on the vaccine. They’d probably say it’s not their job to find alternatives to a safe and effective option, and I don’t take issue with that.

Or maybe medical issues like a history of anaphylaxis. You sound like the type of idiot who would deny a medical exemption to someone within 90 days of a Regeneron treatment.

Any doctor that would tell a patient something like that is not a doctor you want treating you or a loved one. Consider it a blessing in disguise and find a new doctor.



THIS....a lot of God-complex going on in the medical community! Find a doctor that mirrors your health beliefs and objectives.

I don’t think doctors choosing not to treat certain people is as uncommon as the OP is projecting.

Seeing my doctor for the annual physical this week. If he dares gives me an ultimatum like that I'll find a real doctor.

Anybody have any advice
I would imagine there is more to the story but my advice would be; "mom - sounds like you have a choice to make - follow your heart". I fought with my doctor for years over taking a statin but he never went so far as to say, find another doctor. You could get your mother to sign a release so the doctor could talk to you if you want to get the whole story.

Perhaps not. I really couldn't speak intelligently on the subject.

But, it does seem silly.

Obviously this is a different story if she had that type of medical history.

I agree with his advice. She should definitely find a new doctor.

I’m on record disagreeing with doctors withholding treatment for vaccination reasons, but you’re a hyperbolic count, so

95% of US physicians have taken the vaccine. They have seen what this stuff does to you. They have seen people beg for their life, and not be able to help them. Most of you have never intubated someone struggling to breath in their hallway floor and it shows.
