Really? What state was this? That’s definitely not legal in California.[/quote]
What do you mean it’s not legal in California? Are you saying he can force the Urologist to perform a surgical procedure, however minor, against the surgeons wishes? I assure you that he cannot. I had a similar case when I had a 17yo asking me to tie her tubes. She had no kids either, and I refused to do it. My 3 other colleagues at the time refused to do it as well.
You have to be extremely careful when performing technically permanant (although most CAN be reversed, it’s just an expensive and difficult procedure to do so) sterilization procedures. It’s not impossible for the patient to claim they were inadequately counseled prior to the procedure and get the surgeon to pay for future IVF costs.
