Slavery is immoral.

The doctor owns his skills, labor and body. He is also the recognized representative as the property owner when inside his office as he sees patients.

You aren’t entitled to his time, labor, or skills. You can’t enter his office without his permission.

Go elsewhere.

Slavery is immoral.

I certainly wasn't refused an appointment to see about getting my BP meds refilled but since it had been 1 1/2 years (and one telehealth refill) new blood tests were mandatory before she'd do it again.

The majority of Drs don't take the hippocratic oath. Its just a membership pledge that doesn't mean anything legally.

I work for a Dr and I haven't heard that happening in our community. With that being said, people need to get over themselves and get the vaccine. Let's get this virus over and done with and get on with a normal life.

That would be a violation of the hippocratic oath "do no harm".... not that the left puts any stock in oaths or anything else. It also goes against individual rights and everything this country stands for. What's next? Can't go to grocery store without your shots? I've heard that's already happening in other parts of the world.
We've lost our minds. This virus has killed a few million people out of 7 billion in the world....and we're trading away all of our freedoms.

Find another doctor if you don't like it.

Your doctor isn't required to serve you.

not going to be over and done with. These "vaccines" are only a temporary measure at best. If you work in a drs office you should know about the other different versions of this virus thats making the rounds. Good old MU is found in most states according to the CDC and they arent sure if the " vaccines" have any effect on this variant. The vaccinated are getting sick, sometimes very sick and spreading the virus! so stopping picking on the unvaccinated. At least they are honest. Not so the vaccinated!

How in the world can a pediatric office require their patients be vaccinated in order to be seen? Sounds like you heard a doozy!
