74. No, because class is irrelevant
Protected classes are a creation of the law, and are relevant to laws.

Ethics rules can simply say "You can't turn anyone away for their politics". Since the good doctor in question is a voluntary member of the medical board ("Board certified in...."), they have more leeway to impose rules that would be unconstitutional as laws.
