I have fired patients before in my career. The main reasons are:
- Abusive to the doctor or the staff
- Narc seeking or selling
This article in the
USA Today talks about how more and more pediatricians are firing patients (parent and kids) who refuse to get their kids vaccinated. As brutal as this may seem, there is now MORE than enough evidence showing that there isn't any link between vaccines and autism. Pediatricians, as this article states, are just fatiguing on this issue and are willing to let families find healthcare in other places if mom or dad disagree on this issue. I believe these docs have a valid point but firing them seems kind of harsh. Maybe pediatricians just don't have enough patients who are:
- Abusive to the doctor or the staff
- Narc seeking or selling
If they did they may get a better perspective on who they should keep or not.
