Kansas revokes doctor's license in abortion case

Kansas regulators on Friday revoked the medical license of a doctor accused of performing inadequate mental health exams on young patients she then referred to the late Dr. George Tiller for late-term abortions.

The State Board of Healing Arts ratified an administrative judge's earlier decision to strip Dr. Ann Kristin Neuhaus of her license. Neuhaus provided second opinions that Tiller needed under Kansas law to perform some late-term abortions at his Wichita clinic.

Tiller, one of a few U.S. physicians known to perform abortions in the final weeks of pregnancy, was shot to death in May 2009 by a man professing strong anti-abortion views. The administrative judge concluded in February that Neuhaus performed inadequate mental health exams in 2003 on 11 patients, aged 10 to 18.

The judge said Neuhaus' records didn't contain the information necessary to show that she did thorough exams, and the patients' care was "seriously jeopardized."

"Her actions clearly show a disregard for her patients' safety and care, which causes her to be a threat to any future patients she might have," said Reese Hays, the attorney on the board's litigation team who presented the case against Neuhaus.

Sounds like she's a fan of statutory rape, too.

I love the creeps on the message board at that site. The parents were in the room when the "doctor" did the exam on the 10 year old and they consented to the abortion.

HELLO! The "doctor" was OBLIGATED by law to report this to cps. If she didn't she can and should have been prosecuted.

It wouldn't surprise me if "dad" has some 'splainin to do.

Would have been interesting to do some genetic testing.

10 isn’t statutory, It’s child rape.
