Oh yes.
My MO with the non-vaccinated has changed now that getting vaccinated or not has become a personal choice; those who aren't get asked by me why, with an explanation that it is only the non-vaccinated who get admitted and die in Mrs FD's hospital, often after several weeks of misery, followed by the invitation to make an appointment for a jab on the way out.
Those who call in with sniffles/flu like illness get asked whether they have been vaccinated - if not they need to stay in their cars in the car park and will get assessed by me first and if there is a clinical indication they get seen in a special room for those suspected infected with C19 and have a PCR test done, told to isolate at home until the result is back (usually same evening)
I am not going to expose my other patients and staff unnecessary to an infection.
I know the above is not perfect, as clearly even vaccinated people can get infected and be infectious but for now it is working fine; there are maybe others around who are less 'tight'; they are welcome to their practise.
