What you claim happened did not happen. There was no emergency service needed, it was an appointment, and the Dr. should have every right to opt out of treating someone when another Dr. is there to provide the care needed.
With that said I disagree with the actions of this Dr., and my personal belief is they were wrong, but I support their ability to choose.

I never claimed it was emergency service needed. Don't make false claims about me and don't put words in my mouth that I never said!!

How would you know? She made an oath herself and yet she refused to take care of that baby. How would you know she would provide care in that situation where she is the only one available? How about if another doctor available is 30 minutes away? She is untrustworthy.
Awesome job at being unable to comprehend English. My statement was there is no indication what you said is true. There is not. I do not have to know anything. The problem is YOU don't know and are making baseless accusations/assumptions. The question is how do you know she would NOT provide care? If you can't answer that then you should not comment to the effect she would not.

You're the one who cannot comprehend English. She made an oath to take care NO MATTER WHAT. If she did this, then how can you TRUST her at all? Simple enough for you? I am not claiming to know what she will do in other situations.
And she did, she made sure the child was seen by a qualified Dr. It happens every day for various reasons.

I don't care what your stance is, the only thing I take issue with is your claim a baby was almost refused treatment. It's false. Don't make false claims and there is no issue. As to your belief the Dr. was wrong and should have seen the child I agree. I'm a Christian, I disagree with same sex sexual relationships (though it's very possible to have a same sex relationship I have no issue with), and if I was the Dr. I would have shown them love and seen their child.
As I said, your title is wrong, that's my problem.
Just an FYI, many Dr. do not take any oath, none is needed, and technically every single Dr. performing an abortion is breaking the oath. Yes, the Hippocratic Oath specifically mentions abortions and says the Dr. will never perform or help in one.

The child got treatment, and was not almost refused treatment. Fact. Your headline does not read "Dr refuses to care for child", which would be true, your headline reads baby almost refused treatment, which is a complete and utter lie.

It happened because of her belief which is against her oath. Of course with other doctors it happens for various reasons such as illness.

He's the one who thinks we can't comprehend English.
That doctor was wrong to do that PERIOD. It DOES NOT MATTER if she referred them to another doctor. Doctors should not refuse to take care of anyone due to their beliefs.
As to your belief the Dr. was wrong and should have seen the child I agree.
