Good for you!!!
Way to stand up for yourself, and other non-believers.

I also don't think it's unreasonable that you would ask why a manager would
be in attendance at your next appointment.
It hardly seems like you should be considered "difficult".

What I truly do not understand is why so many people care what others think
of them when all they are doing is maintaining their own dignity?
We all have the reasonable expectation that people will do their jobs with
professionalism. We all have the right NOT to be preached to, by anyone,
in any professional situation. Particularly a medical setting.

How is ANY of this somehow your fault?

I really think that religion really has no place In any professional setting what so ever and from what I understand even scientists that do believe in an imaginary sky fairy still has to put their beliefs on the back burner to get to the facts the same standard must be upheld in any profession ( religion and the belief of a deity really has no place or no relevance, for it is a poison and an unnecessary bias that needs only to be eradicated from society) the belief and not the person; but my suggestion would be to inform said person to keep their beliefs to themselves.

How annoying. Captive audience, zealot in position of responsibility. Just think how many people he’s hooked by appearing to be the most authoritarian in the room.

Shift him out of the consulting room or lab to the pub and I am sure he would lose that authority!

Beliefs and opinions are like penises.
They’re fine to have (you can even be proud of them).
But don’t take them out in public, wave them in my face, try to shove them down my throat and think I’m going to like it!

Thanks for standing up for us. He likely makes others uncomfortable too, perhaps on purpose, especially if he can see on a patient's records their religion, or whether it's marked none. Most patients wouldn't have the guts to say anything.

The more people report proselytizing by employees, the better the awareness will be. Isn't it better to keep medical appointments professional and science based? Shouldn't he be touting the medical science and medical care he received rather than downgrading the importance the medical field, and instead crediting a supernatural deity? Wow - not the place for a conversation like you experienced, unless it's a Christian medical facility.

I complained once at a public clinic when I had a MRI and was subjected several minutes of Christian Carols, through headphones, against my wishes. The technician assumed that's what I would want to hear during the holidays, rather than giving me a choice of Hawaiian, Rock, Classical, etc. I didn't complain over the technician's head, but made it clear that it was upsetting to me to be forced to listen to music that went against my beliefs. The technician apologized but was surprised at my complaint. Hopefully a little bit of awareness was created.

Christians, for all their blathering about being discriminated against, actually get favored when it comes to their profession of faith.

Years ago when I was working in a cubicle farm I had a calendar up in my cube. It was a Tracy Lords calendar. it was when she was attempting to go "mainstream" and the calendar contained no porn or nudity, just mildly sexy photos. Near my cube was a Christian who had bible verses and quotes for his politically active pastor all over his cubicle. While my calendar was inside my cube, his posted prosthelytizing was all over the outside of his cube. He complained about my calendar and wanted me to take it down. I agreed, if he took down his Christian postings. He refused to do so. I was required to take down my poster but his bible quotes were allowed to stay.

So yeah... my ass that Christians are "discriminated against".

A witness is a good thing.
A non-biased witness... is even better.

Let us know how it goes..,

Most companies I've worked for have policies against discussions of religion and politics. The subjects tend to be too divisive and disruptive when they occur. I have been aware of a few religious zealots who were "talked to" about proselytizing in the work place over the years. It's one thing to do it with other employees, but another to try to preach to customers.

Off with their bible verses and imaginary god. Of course they know who the tech is. There’s a chain of custody a mile long and a signature at every stop. Get names. You have rights too.
And why are you getting so many x-rays?

Just don't spin your head around 180° and projectile vomit pea soup.

Good for you

More power to you, in doing this just as you should!
I have worked decades for a Catholic-based healthcare system, experiencing my own transition away from childhood faith practices early on there. Within the last 2 decades the organization went face-forward with their diversity (racial) movement, with myself and others bringing personal beliefs into that arena - "oh, that, too?"!
The required respect is at least evident, but some folks just make mindless assumptions. NOT under my team!
I call B.S. on not ID'ing the tech involved, as that is required to stand in the medical record. Creating an affront to your personal comfort on any level is a violation in patient care, may as well have been sexual harrassment or impropriety. I would hope that leadership is there to monitor the HR investigation.
Keep us updated, please!

good luck! i hope you get the same creep and the manager witnesses that. that would be even better luck than getting a reasonable person, right?

g

One of our provinces just out lawed all religious symbols in the work place,going to bit of controverdary over that what ,I think the existing stafs will be grandfather but all new people coming in will be subject to it while on the job,,afterhours free to do as you wish
