I agree. I'd rather have a doc tell me upfront then have a nagging feeling he's not doing his best by me.

That said, boys scouts, wedding halls, etc. should have that same right. Some refuse to host same sex marriages and they are penalized. From the article ... physicians do not give up their freedom of association by merely becoming professionals." But the Boys Scout, owners of establishments, owners who refuse to rent are expected to give up their's. This is the next nazi - fat is out - you are on your own. Next will it be 'you smoke or have smoked so you are on your own, I can't help you'?
