His sign refuses care.
Same as Irish need not apply.

No it doesn't. I can send the IRS letter upon letter stating that I am not going to pay my taxes, but they can't do anything about it until April 15th comes and goes.BCSbunk wrote:

isn't it standard for most doctors who "conscientiously object" to a treatment or service to give you another option for said service/treatment? He doesn't say go to this doctor, he basically says GFY...LJ wrote:

I mean, I think most people really aren't aware that he would have to treat them...and I think that's the rub

I get he hasn't actually done it, but he's saying he's going to do it...and for the common person, that would be enough to assume he won't treat them (if they supported the chosen one)LJ wrote:

If I ask you as Doctor to treat me and you say Seek treatment elsewhere. that is a refusal. True or false?
If I come to your office and there is a sign on your door that says BCSbunk seek treatment elsewhere what am I to think of that?
Oh he is kidding around? Oh he can't be serious? Oh I better go in and talk to him because I am stupid and do not understand plain English on his sign he wrote?
Hopefully this POS gets his license revoked. -

That's so confusing. Why would an Obama supporter need a dick doctor.
-
I Wear PantsThis guy is a humongous douche bag. He should get a reprimand from whoever does that in the medical field but i think until he actually carries out that promise it'd be a bit harsh to take his license. But a stern talking to/warning/forced apology might be appropriate.

urologists deal with one of the strangest forms of cancer, kidney cancer. I wouldn't just call them "dick doctors".Footwedge wrote: The guy is a dick doctor...very appropos. -

I never said they were just dick doctors...but they are in fact dick doctors. They deal in urination problems and sexual problems for males. Those 2 listed are the functions of one's dick, So, my statement is true. This guy is a dick doctor.LJ wrote:

Calling one a dick doctor is far different than calling a doctor a dick. But in the context of this thread, this dick doctor is also an obvious dick....and as such, will probably have an entry made on his behalf in dickipedia. Do you want me to explain about Peter Piper and his pickled peppers now? -

As long as the patient is not in need of emergent care, it is appropriate for a physcian to refuse to see a patient if they so wish. Physicians often decide to disengage a patient for a number of reasons (ie. reepearted uncompliant treatment, non-payment/late payment of bills, harrassing office staff, conflicts with personality, etc.).
Just as a physcian ha a right to not treat these patients, the patients have the right to go to another doctor. In the long run, this could hurt him from an economic point of view. -

Swamp FoxI think that if I walk into a doctor's office and see a sign that says if I support someone politically that the "doctor" doesn't, I should seek treatment elsewhere,that that is about as clear a case of refusal to treat as I have ever seen. At the very least, I would not demand he treat me because I would not have much confidence in him as my physician. I think it would be about as unprofessional and worthy of having his license pulled as anything I could possibly imagine. There is simply no excuse for it.

I agree with this. Why would anyone want to demand their physician treat them. No thank you I would go elsewhere. As much as I disagree with the federal government increasing its involvement in the health care field, the doctors office is not the place to make that stand.Swamp Fox wrote:At the very least, I would not demand he treat me because I would not have much confidence in him as my physician.
