Its more than political but thats a way of stating it, its a question of a doctor's license, doctor-patient confidentiality, malpractice insurance, state medical boards, and I've probably forgotten more legalese. Doctors generally do not want to get into situations that place their medical license, which is their livelihood, in jeopardy. Nor would you really want a doctor-patient relation which is confidential in almost all regards, online, for all to see.
