  • Supporters say it gives terminally ill patients more autonomy. Critics argue it’s ‘not the compassionate answer’

          Why should any medical procedure a doctor does be the patient’s choice? I don’t think doctors should be forced to perform procedures they don’t want to perform. Why should a doctor be forced to kill a patient that wants to die?

            They aren’t saying doctors should be forced to do anything, they are saying if they want a assisted suicide that a physician can legally help.
