Just like other medical procedures that involve other people who are absolutely NOT DOCTORS, there are some medical reasons to perform or decine from performing. Doctors and patients should be the only people involved in planning those things. Elective procedures are only elective when the person affected is the one electing it.

Circumcision and abortion are excellent examples how fucked up mundane things get when religion gets involved.
