In order for them to deserve the trust of their patients, they must adhere to a very high ethical standard and not abuse anyone's trust. Naturally this includes treating all patients fairly and without prejudice.
Is it ethical to comply with the request of a 98 year old patient who does not want to have battery replaced in her pacemaker?

If a valid/legal DNR order was in place, and the surgeon performed the procedure against the patients wishes anyway, they could be sued civilly, and perhaps even charged criminally, with Assault.On the other hand: If no legally valid DNR order is in effect, the situation becomes more dicey. If the patient, with witnesses present and of sound mind, voiced the specific wish that they be allowed to expire, even though it might be medically possible to save them by replacing the battery, the doctor would have to perform surgery (commit Assault) in order to do so.A conundrum!
