You have the right to choose where you don't want to receive treatment from.

My primary doc is a Pdoc. My Pdoc is also a primary doc. Both of them work together. I do NOT ever want them to take on the other's role (and luckily they agree).

I found out that the next time I get a obgyn exam I'm supposed to go to the "women's center". I will NOT! There is no way I'm letting a stranger do it. It's already difficult enough to have to go through it.

Also, my primary was recently out on maternity leave. I had to see a doctor while she was out. I wound up having to see a male doctor. Since I have an extreme fear of men, a female nurse stayed with me the entire time.

So you definitely do have the right to request accommodations when it comes to your treatment.
