This is my third time to the office. Im waiting for the Doctor to come in and whie waiting in the examination room, I spot this. I start flipping through it, and I am getting upset.
I wait for the doctor to come in. I immeditely ask him, hey what it this? why is it here? He blew me off and just said "oh its just an opinion piece" and I said, yeah, but who put it here, do you believe in this? And he just shrugged. I said, Im leaving, that is so wierd, thats weird to have in a doctors office. And I left. Ill never go back to that place.
I need a doctor who believes in science. You wanna be christain thats fine, but this literally says,for christain nationalism. gross.
Putnam CT, USA if anyone is curious. I want to post the photo in google maps reviews, but I am afraid to, even with my google account being a burner. Yes, it's the red pocket of an overall blue state, but, I just, was not expecting to see this.
You should report this to the state medical board. They take such reports seriously.
Not to be a downer, but I seriously doubt anything would come of a report. The provider could have bibles in every room in the practice, with weeping jesus hanging on every wall, and still not violate any rules. Providers can now refuse to treat based on their moral grounds (read - pharmacists not filling scripts for the morning after pill, birth control, etc and more.)
As utterly disgusting as this is, it's not illegal.
Edit to add - what's even more surprising is that someone paid $6.95 for that rag
This is the kind of info I was hoping to get. Ill look into it. I still dont feel good and need to find a new doctor now too. :(
