No Scott Adams, it's not between me and MY Dr., I make my medical decisions myself. I can fucking read. This Scamdemic has reaffirmed my lack of trust in the ability, knowledge, and interests of the entire medical comunity.

I beg to differ. The decision is between my, and my MD. For example, if i want Liposuction; and my MD says "No, that would be foolish for you at your age, weight and health"; he wins. Despite what I do, no matter how I stomp my feet, shout and scream; he is the MD. If in his opinion, this process would be akin to suicide - he has a DUTY to refuse to provide this service. Whether I am anemic, or morbidly obese - he is the health professional.
However, if he demands I get a process, take a vaccine, being an exercise regiment, or take a medication - I have final and absolute right to VETO his decision. For any reason, or no reason at all.
Decisions are joint, requiring agreements between BOTH parties. And as a Patient, i hold the upper hand, because I may chose, at my discretion, to find another health provider for any reason, or no reason at all.
You could go get a second opinion on the lipo. It's pretty innocuous.
What amounts to is that he can say no to you and you can say no to him.
YES is an entirely different matter.
In most cases, it's really up to you. If your doctor says no, you can find a new doctor. If you have enough money and motivation, you'll usually be able to find one who will say yes, even if you have to leave the country to do so.
