I even had one completely healthy, physically active, no significant health or mobility issues patient do exactly that. When I asked why he would even make such a request, his reply was "If you don't ask, you don't get". And that was an otherwise reasonable individual that I knew for 25 years. I can only imagine the requests Florida doctors get.
