Can’t wait for a gay doctor to deny treatment for a bigot and all their heads explode.
(They’re heads never actually explode and this bothers me.)
Be the change you want to see in the world (in minecraft)
That's not what the Hippocratic Oath says. I know it's just smoke and mirrors, but that oath still means something. Any doctor who would disregard it should not be trusted with your health, and should not be practicing medicine at all.
Hippocratic oath, more like hypocritical oath amirite
Hey American Doctors and Nurses, Canada is looking for great physicians to practice and contribute their talents to.

How about engineers? Pretty please?
I hear a bunch of European countries are hiring!
If your morals compel you to deny care to someone, they are shitty morals, you are a shitty doctor, and you are a shitty human being.
This also implies that the denying doctor is ok with breaking an oath to do no harm.
Applies to insurance companies too. Yikes.
it allows them auto deny, things like non-christians, but doctors can refuse to take INSURANCE so doctors have some leverage.
Ah. Healthcare denied to ICE enforcers. I am alright with that.
You're saving them money by automatically denying. Instead, bring them in and tell them to their face you don't serve fascists, then charge them $800
They don't need it if the EMT arrives and they're dead on sight.
It would be hilarious if doctors denied care to everybody who voted for this.
Any doctor that does this is a shitty fucking doctor.
Conservatives continue to be garbage
*regressives
Tomato Tomato
Conservativism rose out of a support for the aristocracy.
Can they also provide necessary procedures if it is required by their morals?
So racist doctors are protected now?
So are doctors who won’t morally treat a police officers gunshot wounds.
I see this being repealed in record time.
I wish I was a doctor in Tennessee now, just so I could do shit like this.
apparently some red areas are so desperate they are willing to pay for out of state doctors, just to work in the state for few times a week, they can make bank too.
"It is immoral to provide health care, because that's in defiance of God's will."
Hopefully any doctor who does this gets their accreditation or certification suspended. (I think the licenses are a state operation, so that's not going to happen.)
Though shall not allow a politician to live... Or something like that. Sorry senator I can't treat you.
get the good people out of america then nuke the fucking place. This is unthinkable. Hippocratic oath, anyone?
In america doctors don't take the Hippocratic oath anymore.. Doctors of medicine still take a modified version, but "Doctors of Osteopathy" take their own special oath where they have this wonderful little section which does a LOT of heavy lifting:
...to employ only those recognized methods of treatment consistent with good judgment and with my skill and ability, keeping in mind always nature's laws and the body's inherent capacity for recovery.
I will be ever vigilant in aiding in the general welfare of the community, sustaining its laws and institutions, not engaging in those practices which will in any way bring shame or discredit upon myself or my profession...
And, as I'm sure you can imagine, this leaves open to the interpretation of the reader what constitutes "natural law", "good judgment", the "general welfare of the community", or "practices which will bring shame or discredit".
Also, those Osteopaths, who are not even considered doctors in many international jurisdictions, still swear to hold to the principles of Osteopathy, a pseudoscientific quackery which says that anything your body needs to heal can be produced by your body. I'm sure you can guess how that relates to vaccines.
On call on Sunday. "Doctor, please help!" "Nope, working on Sunday violates my morals."
Cause fuck them! There’s our place…
So can I just not do my job if it violates my morals?
