Oh, really? Ok, let's see: a girl going to school on Monday despite not wanting to is comparable to her being raped because in both cases she is forced to do something against their will. No, it's not comparable.
Also, nice dodge there. But really, do answer the question. Do you think refusing treatment to a dying child is morally okay? Is it more so than a doctor being forced to do treat someone they don't like?

The doctor was being a dick, but she has a right to be a dick if she wants. You people getting butthurt about it isn't a sufficient enough of a reason for the doctors rights to be taken away.
The right to infringe other people's freedoms? Yeah, she doesn't have it.
