This story has a major plot hole.

If you were so certain the biopsy was unnecessary and harmful, why didn’t you just refuse it, seek a second opinion (especially as you evidently are portraying the doctor as a villian).

Also your last paragraph doesn’t even read well as preteen fall fiction.

Doctors will refuse to do surgery if you refuse their stupid tests that don’t matter

Your insurance company also likely requires the test to cover the surgery.

This is simply false.

How so? A doctor can always refuse to do a surgery and suggest you see a different doctor. All they would have to say is that I don’t feel comfortable doing the surgery without the test
