That IS what I was saying. :) I certainly don't knock this man's right to feel whatever way he wants to feel about the healthcare bill. But there are certain times in all professions where you really have to put aside your own opinions and just provide the best service you can and make your customers/clients/patients feel like all those personal things are left at the door.

One thing I expect to see is an offspring of copycats doing this across the country. ;)

Ran across this today:

The relationship between a doctor and patient is a sacred matter of trust and acceptance. Regardless of the political views we may hold, we doctors are forbidden by our code of ethics to allow those opinions to interfere with how we practice medicine. We must always remember that we do not own the knowledge we use to treat our patients. The knowledge that forms the foundation and body of the practice of Medicine has been collected and passed down over centuries. It is the cumulative work of millions of physicians, chemists, biologists, pharmacologists, scientists, and researchers. It is astonishing arrogance for a doctor to even suggest that he might pick and choose who to help with this most noble legacy of the human mind and heart.

We do not have the right to dispense that knowledge to only those we favor, or to withhold it from those for whom we have a distaste. We must not merely condescend to treat those with whom we disagree. To provide medical care is not a favor, it is an honor and a duty. As a psychiatrist, I have treated people who spat on me, alcoholics who drank away their family's grocery money, psychotics who rub their feces on the walls, and sociopaths who stole pain medication from elderly sufferers of cancer . If I can treat such people without hesitation, and with the same care and concern that I would use treat my own wife and children, then surely, Dr. Cassell, you could find it in your heart to provide care for those who have only conspired with their vote to take a few dollars out of your pocket. Dr. Cassell, you are a disgrace to our honored profession. You should indeed send your patients elsewhere, to a doctor that cares. Meanwhile, you should look for other work.
