I dont really support the idea propused, but because the surgery is elective, the way I understand it a doctor can refuse elective surgery on any ground he wants.

i know a plastic surgion in florida who refused to perform that elective surgery on a trial lawyer does that seem wrong to you,
i have heard this idea from a few doctors around here that they should request the court cases filed under medical malpractice and determine if it was necisary if it was not refuse to see the patient for elective reasons if there something life threatoning you would still see them
the hipocratic oath only requests that you do not harm the patient and you do everything in your power to help them survive, it says nothing about helping them appear better in any way
also it says that they will not perform abortions but we know that every doctor follows that line under all surcimstances
