Reply: Barbara Nicol MD: "Re: Sad but true --->Call the question!" No, I got it, but maybe I wasn't clear enough. I think that all reasonable avenues should be pursued to allow patients to exercise this preference. And that patients always have the right to refuse treatment, but not the right to demand an alternative. In the case of gender preference for sexual health, the alternative should be offered if at all possible. At Thu, 16 Feb 2006, Larry Glazerman wrote: > >You might have missed my point.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
