At the time they were starting to get more Muslim medical students, and both the tutor and his group seemed to suggest to trainee doctors of all faiths that if only they were to go for appropriate specialisms - e.g. pre-natal care - then by exercising the 'conscience clause' they could ensure religious views on, say, abortion, were imposed on overstretched NHS services because patients could not get access to other doctors in the limited time available.<br />Thankfully,that tutor has retired and has since died. But you can see how the seeds of an idea he planted could be taking effect on a generation of medical professionals now a rung or two up the ladder.Stuart Hartillhttp://clingingtoarock.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9184499599312552350.post-72637253698669190672009-05-08T18:13:00.000+01:002009-05-08T18:13:00.000+01:00If he's an oral surgeon there may be valid reasons...If he's an oral surgeon there may be valid reasons for jewelry removal.
