And what occurs when a Doctor is being asked to perform FGM? After all, this is a "cultural practice" .

Doctors and patients both have their own rights of freedom of speech and religion that must be upheld.

No doctor should ever have to act against his or her conscience for the sake of political correctness.

A doctor and the patient should have the ability to define how they will perform and receive treatment. It is a private matter between the doctor and patient and each has their own rights of freedom of speech and religion that should be respected.

A Doctor should be able to treat his patients in accordance with his/her convictions.

Such ridiculously subjective unjustified changes mean Doctors could easily be targeted by a family or group that simply disagrees with who they are and some cultures or groups wouldn't actually put the patients welfare above their own agenda. Another example of PC destructiveness.

I am very concerned about proposed changes to the Medical Board's Code of Conduct. Doctors must remain free to exercise sound clinical judgement according to their conscience.

We want good medical practice, not politically correct decisions that fly in the face of reality.

Doctors need to be free to practice good medicine, including explaining options to patients. The base should be good medicine not political correctness .

No doctor should feel that their right to legally provide medical care to promote life and health is threatened by the vagaries of 'cultural' preference.

I want my doctor to hold strong moral and ethical codes of conduct. PC is not correct and robs society of common sense.

Devious and creepy ramifications of changes made 'in the shadows', I strongly disagree to the suggested changes.

History records the Stalin and Hitler and other regimes where Doctors were unable to exercise freedom of choice or forced to Godless medical ethics.
