[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 1751020, member: 9374"] All you have to do is say no. If you want to get technical about it, the myriad layers of scrutiny and protection came from customers suing their practitioners for every little BS perceived wrong. If you want to sign an agreement with me as a provider saying you take all advice and treatment as voluntary and give up any right to sue me, then fine. I'll practice based on "common sense". But the fact is, common sense isn't good enough to be held as a standard in a court of law, and isn't good enough to protect me and my family. If I have to choose between getting your dander up and protecting my family's means of support and lifestyle, then you'll just have to get pissed and head elsewhere. I've never said I agree with this crap... I'm just telling you how it IS, and how it WILL BE. And if you or anyone else thinks for a second that their feelings trump my family's livelihood or the 11 years of training it took me to get where I am, I'm sorry, but you are mistaken. Medicine is no longer by-and-large considered a "noble profession" and almost no one out there gives a damn that doctors live in constant fear and worry of doing their best, giving up their free time and family time, working long hours at disgusting tasks and still having everything taken away by the very people they're trying to help. I'm not surprised you or anyone else falls into the category of "I'm paying you, you do what I say." Like I said... please don't come and visit me as a patient, because you'll be leaving quite upset, I'm guessing. [/QUOTE]
