Doctor asks Do you own a gun?

<< < (2/3) > >>

bkoenig:
I haven't been asked yet...but my doctor has a bunch of hunting and shooting mags in the waiting room. :)

RobertH:
Our pediatrician asked my wife. I was not present. She answered truthfully. I was mad when I found out. It's none of their business, period. They said they want guns locked up and away from kids, I agree there, but don't ask if I have them, just say keep them locked up.

Mark B:
From the replies it has been happening for some time. Is there a directive coming from the AMA, CDC, or ?

deputygunner:
I had it happen a few years ago, during a physical. I said that had nothing to do with my health. Got up, got dressed and walked out, never went back.

 

Mali:
I agree completely that this is really a NONE of their business unless I am there for a firearm related issue like having suffered a ND injury or lead poisoning symptoms.

I have not had them ask, but then I usually have an empty IWB holster on my hip when I go in for an exam since I can't carry my gun into the building. Have a feeling they know the answer before ever asking me.  :D
