Whether British doctors have decided to protect themselves, or just want to reach the minds of patients, but the fact remains that recently some British doctors, 50 doctors of general practice, began to refuse to carry out the operation to those patients who are suffering obesity   and have the addiction as   smoking .
According to the daily British newspaper The Independent, Hertfordshire doctors made the first step in this direction. However, doctors motivate its rejection of the very high risk surgery these groups of patients.

Doctors want to ban such operations across the UK. This is due to the fact that patients with obesity and smokers, particularly those who smoke more packs of cigarettes a day, get an extra risk of complications of infection   in the postoperative period, and indeed this period is almost always last longer than the others, which is associated with a lower body's ability to resist destructive factors.

In that case, if the surgery is urgently needed to the patient, he will be asked to normalize your diet and give up bad habits And if he refuses, then the doctor will explain what threatens a way of life in the postoperative period.

Tony Kostik, one of the leading physicians of England, says that to lose weight, a person may not even need surgery.

But, as always happens in such situations, many doctors considered this measure and called simply brutal discrimination. They are of the opinion that the share of patients did not correctly and all patients should be treated equally.
