Multiple Choice

John K. Davis | Conscientious Refusal and a Doctor's Right to Quit
Davis argues that doctors have a right to conscientious refusal to treat a patient as long as they do not make the patient worse off than he or she would have been had they not gone to the doctor in the first place. This refusal is justified by the restitution approach, which further settles a number of moral controversies that can arise from an "ethics of quitting."
-Davis's ___________ depends on the premise that "If you're not this patient's doctor, you need not do anything for this patient."
