A member asked:
Is it possible to refuse to have a pap smear done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Patients can refuse to have a test done. The question would be why? Pap tests are the most effective cancer screen available. They have dramatically decreased the incidence of cervical cancer. I would be curious to know the concern.
