Legal Question in Health Care Law in New York

Seems every health service I try to use I have to sign a waiver or release of responsibility and liability to get service. I try doctors or gyms and I can't get service without signing my protection away. Is that legal? What can I do to protect my right to sue if true negligence is the cause of my injury?
