Believe me they have been thinking about it.

The doctor is suppose to LOSE money and stay in business because a political figure named Obama is forcing him to lose money.

How dare Obama force his political BS on a doctor who is well respected and has helped so many people.

crbcrbrgv, the link describes the doctor as a urologist. Has more to do with urine than the birth canal. Urine, that's why one takes a p!55.

Like these doctors? Or these doctors? Or doctors and organizations of physicians mentioned here? Or, like the drama queen referred to in the OP?

I guess the term, "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone" can be applied here. More power to him. To bad most people don't have the balls to do what he did.

Obamacare eliminates that patient privacy and neither the physician nor the patient have any say in the matter. Our medical records become an open book for any government employee or bureaucracy the HHS Secretary deems appropriate.
What ever was covered under HIPPA still is and anything else is no different then it's been since the Privacy Act of 1974 was enacted. And the Patroit Act, takes care of anything left.

Nothing has changed.

Not entirely. I don't think it would be legal for him to reject patients based on skin color or religion, for example.

Forgot to add, and the Patriot Act covers anything else.

The government has had access to medical records when and if they wanted for decades.

But why would they bother?
