Ben's asking some interesting questions

Ben's asking this....

Consider the situation in which a physician informs his or her patient that he or she will financially benefit from enrolling the patient in a certain clinical trial. The patient doesn't necessarily want to participate, but what will he or she expect after declining? Can they expect their doctor to be happy with them now that they've not secured that financial incentive? What consequences can this have on current and future care from the same doctor?

Opinions? Go comment.
