Catholic doctors are refusing to treat those who request birth control, even after rape.
One North Texas girl explains the (im)morality discussion by her doctor who told her she should not be having sex, ...
The AMA supports their "right?" to selectively treat patents who request care that conflicts with their religious beliefs.

Maybe doctors should be required to post their religion, moral beliefs and what medical needs they refuse to serve.
Maybe plumbers should refuse to repair toilets on the sabath.

I don't have a problem with doctors like this just as long
as they ain't in the ER where time is of the essence in
medical care. Course, I think they should list themselves
in the yellow pages under medieval medical practice too. :lol

I have no problem with a Doctor practicing along their beliefs. I don't think they should be in the emergency room but who needs emergency birth control anyhow. You are going to have to go with scarymary's suggestion.

I would then guess that a DNR order would be ignored by a catholic also?

I have been on the other side of that remark and it is true that they do. However, in an instance that they would need such an intervention I cannot think of a Dr. who would not help.

These very doctors are putting the public on notice that they will not provide emergency contraception, and if they are following Catholic doctrine, they may well refuse to perform other emergency procedures involving DNC.
