The new legislation, prompted by ProPublica’s reporting, comes after 111 Texas doctors signed a public letter urging that the ban be changed because it “does not allow us as medical professionals to do our jobs.”

Or, doctors could all just stop seeing and treating the legislators and their families.
doctors are supposed to be neutral and treat regardless of sides
You are 100% correct. Where they do have a choice is where to practice. Leave Texas and let them figure it out by themselves. Doctors are not obligated to work in Texas so bleeding the state dry (no pun intended) of medical professionals, it is a strategy the medical field could employ if they choose to do so. Doctors and nurses leaving in droves sends a message. Stating a lack of working conditions due to state enforced measures is a very valid excuse imho.
Never going to happen, I know…
Doctors are allowed to decline patients.
