I think not. Look at Pam Anderson.

I think Pamela Anderson had the guns before her HepC diagnosis.  The answer to your question is yes.  Doctor's always turn down unecessary surgical procedures.  God Bless

I doubt she'll be replying. This post is like 8 years old. She might have already had 5 transplants by now.

Someone had bumped it up with a herbal breast augmentation add and I reported it.

Yes, doctors don't have to operate on patients with hepatitis C. Same goes for HIV or someone with a live grenade inside them. A doctor, in California at least, can refuse to take on any patient even if they just don't like them. If the patient already is under the doctor's care, it's a different story. There's a law about abandoning patients where it's the doctor's responsibility to help the patient find another physician and to take care of any emergency problems in the meantime.

Have you ever heard that rumur or maybe it's true that if you work for HOOTER'S for one full year they will pay for breast implants?  I can see me slinging those chicken wings now.  Not a pretty sight!!

"Shawna might be sporting some "DD" by now." Let's hope she reached svr first, those "DD"'s might get in the way when doing a stomach peg shot....;^)
