My former personal care physician pushed the jab on me at every opportunity, and had I not changed my HMO, I'd have changed doctors. Perfect timing.
He was just a little too eager. He even gratuitously informed me that if I had any religious qualms, the pope had said it was all right (Mrs. niteowl77 later said that she would have paid to have seen the expression on my face when that inducement was tried).
Re Religious qualms:
My family threw that in my face too. I’m surprised your doctor had researched your religion to see if he could use that to convince you.
You are well quit of him!
