Regardless of the medical considerations, Jehovah Witnesses advocate that physicians should uphold the right of a patient to choose what treatments they do or do not accept (though a Witness is subject to religious sanctions if they exercise their right to choose a blood transfusion).
不管医学方面的考虑，耶和华见证人建议医生要尊重患者选择哪一种疗法的权利（如果见证人选了了血液疗法，他就会收到来自宗教的制裁）。
