The question I have is not about vaccines, but about the doctors behavior.
How would you react if your doctor told you to either stop drinking, or get out. Maybe to stop eating fatty foods or get out. If you were having sex outside a committed relationship, get out.

Lets say more doctors adopted this attitude.
If you are slightly overweight, get out.
If did anything that would have a negative effect on your health, get out.
Lets not turn this into a "but unvaccinated children pose a health risk to others." We all know that, there is no dispute there.
The parents made a life choice for their family, should the doctors have the right to refuse treatment due to life choices?
EDIT
Thread title changed to better reflect direction of thread.
Maybe they're not "refusing treatment based on life choices," they're refusing to take anti-vaccine nutjobs on as patients because they figure probably correctly that you'll be simillarly idiotic in other aspects of medical care and a general hassle to deal with personality-wise.
I'd support anyone who refuses vaccinations for their children being refused from all public accomodations and services as a health measure. Want to not have your kids take the polio vaccine, then stay the fuck away from shopping malls, swimming pools, and everywhere else the general public is and go back to your backwoods hillbilly compound to produce more inbreds.
