“The child’s entitled to any care he/she needs. “
Do you mean to say that this child is somehow entitled to the labor of this doctor even though he doesn’t want to provide it? You might want to think that all the way through.
No one is entitled to the labor of another for any reason.

First of all,I made that statement with the assumption that the physician in question would be financially compensated in some mutually agreeable way.And with that having been stipulated be aware that physicians take an oath..an oath that you've probably at least heard of if not fully understand.And that oath doesn't provide exceptions for people of whose parents the physician doesn't approve.In fact,one could easily argue that the duty that that physician has to that patient is *greater* because of the potential harm he/she might suffer at the hands of pervert "parents".
If this woman didn't agree with the oath that she knew she'd be taking upon graduation from medical school she could have become an accountant.Unless I'm mistaken accountants don't have a moral responsibility to take on a particular client.As an accountant she'd have no moral or professional responsibility to do the tax returns of these perverts.
I have no problem whatsoever with this physician being repulsed by these perverts.But she's punishing the child for the sins of the "parents".
