At a recent Highland meeting in Utah, Dr. Kirk Moore passionately defended his approach to patient care, emphasizing the importance of informed consent and personal autonomy in medical decisions. Moore, who has faced legal challenges, asserted that he acted in accordance with the Hippocratic Oath, stating, "First do no harm," and insisted that he always informed his patients about their treatment options.
Moore highlighted a troubling trend in California, where a new law threatens physicians with the loss of their medical licenses if they do not adhere to government-sanctioned narratives regarding medical treatments. He expressed concern that such regulations undermine the ethical responsibilities of doctors and the rights of patients to make informed choices about their health.
The physician urged attendees to recognize the broader implications of government control over personal health decisions, warning that failing to resist such measures could lead to a loss of freedoms. "If we can't control what goes in our body... we've lost all freedoms," he declared, drawing parallels to historical movements advocating for personal choice.
Moore's remarks resonated with many in the audience, who echoed his call for greater involvement in local governance and advocacy for medical freedom. He encouraged individuals to stand firm in their beliefs, despite potential backlash, asserting that change must begin at the community level.
As the meeting concluded, Moore opened the floor for questions, reinforcing his commitment to patient rights and the ethical practice of medicine amidst a rapidly changing political landscape.
