∙ 8y agoYes, you certainly can. The doctor is there to help you manage your own health, not order you around. You can turn down any test or treatment you do not want. However, some things might be required by a school, employer, or insurance company. Even though your doctor cannot make you do it, you will need to have it done if you want the service the aforementioned organization or company offers.

While it is hard to imagine a symptomatic individual refusing a test in this environment, it is important to consider the legal implications of a patient’s refusal and to provide guidance on how to respond while navigating federal and state laws that may apply to the situation.

Specialists don't need to run a test on you since you demand one. Patient deserting is a type of clinical negligence that happens when a doctor ends the specialist patient relationship without sensible notification or a sensible pardon, and neglects to furnish the patient with a chance to track down a certified substitution care supplier.
