Why is it that Dr.'s have doors that open outwards, pharmacy's are the same way?

I have a hard time being in a wheelchair going to my various dr.'s, to some restaurants, even my pharmacy. There someone has to always pick up my medications for me. My orthopedic's door opens outwards, when He has patients on crutches, wheelchairs, and I even saw one patient waiting for artificial arms, how's he to open a door. I got onto my Mental Health area, they now have a button to make the doors open. My PCP's office is in a building along with several of my dr.'s. The outside door has a handicap button, but his office has doors that open outwards. Don't they realize that it's hard to get in with crutches, or a wheelchair? I think all medical, restaurants, and pharmacy's should be made to accomodate the handicaps of our country. There's one restaurant that I can't go in and sit, because of the steps to the door. I have to go thru the drive-in. That's discrimination.
