Physicians in America will be required by law to perform abortions if liberals get their way. Those who don’t will be dropped by insurance companies and the new liberal national healthcare.
In essence, if you don’t do what the government healthcare system demands, you will no longer receive reimbursement for any of your procedures.
Result: Many good physicians will switch to other professions and drop the practice of medicine altogether. It has already begun.
Pretty dang depressing, if true. Can you document that? (I'm not disputing you, I'd just like to know more about it.)
On a more cheerful note, 87% of the counties in the USA have not one doctor willing to do abortions.
And the average age of abortionists in the USA is over 50; and when they retire they are, by and large, not being replaced.
Where's all this conscience coming from?
To an idealistic young doctor, abortion has little appealit's fundamentally a destructive operation, offering little professional challenge, and no ongoing doctor-patient relationship. In addition, other doctors hold abortion providers in low esteem. Warren Hern, an abortion specialist in Boulder, Colorado, complains that his fellow providers "are treated as a pariah by the medical community. At best, we are tolerated." In 1993, the controversial Project Choice survey polled almost a thousand abortion providers; 69 percent said their profession was "not respected in the medical community."
Well, golly. Maybe it's because they have such suboptimal outcomes. Almost every operation, it's one wounded, one dead.
