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."

"Expect him to be charged with racism and discrimination before the week is over."

And a call from the IRS for an audit.

No doubt. However, I prefer to use profiling and take my chances elsewhere.

Pretty funny stuff. One even thinks doctors have to take you as a patient. Nope doctors can and do let patients go if they don’t get along.

Yep. Happens all the time.

Sounds about right, unfortunately.

Nothing wrong with this.

Doctors should be allowed to refuse to treat people who voted for Obama or Bush or who are opposed to amnesty or support gays getting married or whatever.

Considering what these two programs pay...I bet he stopped years ago! You can’t pay your office staff on what you earn in surgery doing these cases. At least for a few more years people will have private insurance to take care of themselves.

Sounds like change I can believe in.
