“No. It is already here. Try to find a surgeon who will operate on you while you continue to smoke or if you are quite overweight.”

So if a smoker or fat person is involved in a car accident and needs surgery, the surgeon can refuse to work on them in the ER? Or the hospital can refuse them entry?
Yikes!

If it is an emergency, then of course they will operate. They have the choice not to operate when it is not an emergency, what we call an elective procedure.
