Mount Dora (Florida) doctor tells Obama supporters: Go elsewhere
Orlando Sentinel ^ | Stephen Hudak

Posted on 04/01/2010 8:33:01 PM PDT by Straight Vermonter

A doctor who considers the national health-care overhaul to be bad medicine for the country posted a sign on his office door telling patients who voted for President Barack Obama to seek care "elsewhere."

"I'm not turning anybody away — that would be unethical," Dr. Jack Cassell, 56, a Mount Dora urologist and a registered Republican opposed to the health plan, told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday. "But if they read the sign and turn the other way, so be it."

The sign reads: "If you voted for Obama…seek urologic care elsewhere. Changes to your healthcare begin right now, not in four years."

I think he should add this underneath the sign:

“Please visit the Neurologist down the hall. Tell them I sent you and I’ll pay for your lobotomy.”

my docs, gyn and family practice, are a married couple who are dedicated to universal healthcare. i do not discuss political issues with them. back in 04 one wore a “Dean for President” button on her lab coat. i find it funny to think how much they will inevitably hate this legislation.

They consider it immoral to refuse care based on politics?
Taht said, most physicians I know are appalled by socialist health care.

“We apologize, but we no longer accept Medicaid patients.”

Medicaid = Obama voters = non-compliant, trailer-trash, narcotic seeking social parasite nightmare patients

Good for him!

I’m doing something similar, just not as overt.

We should all make certain the burden of collectivism falls on those who support it, ignorant, or not.

You protect the innocent and the righteous from this burden by doing so.

"Wonder if anyone ever researched the outcome of the patients he treated while he was here. "

Iranian MD's can be brilliant docs.

LOL!!! I love it. My wife changed where she gets her hair and nails done because the owner is a huge Obongo fan and thinks she is going to get all kinds of free crap. Her daughter has a half black kid, not married. That says it all. Thankfully my doctors are all rabid Obongo haters.

I assume the good Dr. will stop accepting medicare/medicaid claims?

most of the ones I know have stopped medicaid and will bill you and give you the forms to bill medicare.

In other words, they've opted out already. So if you don't have supplemental medicare insurance, you get stuck with their bill...... or a prostate the size of Alabama.

“Good for him!”
I second that and add that wouldn”t it be nice to see him also include trial lawyers?
On second thought, just where would you refer trial lawyers?...Veterinarians? Terminix?

I love this article! Whoohoo! He is using the opportunity to educate them too. He will have Grayson looking to make the evening news over this. I would put a sign up for him too which reads: “ALAN GRAYSON, PLEASE DROP BY FOR YOUR STRAIGHT JACKET.”

Good for him to remind these brainwashed socialist zombies that think “healthcare is a basic human right” that NO ONE has a “right” to the time and expertise of another person.

How could this be expanded nationwide?

Such as a sign in your back window of your car at the supermarket.

"Uprepentant Obama 2008 Supporter? Then don't wait here for me to pull out, go find another spot, I am not giving you this one."

I mean, we need to get hardcore on these asses at the grassroots.

Brush up one7s aikido first, and dont have kids in the car when you do it is what I would advise.

There’s a poll next to the article, asking whether you think the doctor is within his rights. So far, fewer than 200 votes on this poll.

There is also a link within the article to another poll, asking whether you agree with the doctor. Something like 1500 votes on this one so far.

Both polls are about 75% in favor of the doctor.
