Abortion clinics should be inspected at least as frequently as pizzerias, tanning salons and movie theaters, according to new radio ads decrying the sanitary conditions at some of New York’s facilities.
The 30-second and 60-second spots paid for by the pro-life Chiaroscuro Group quote what the organization claims are scathing reviews culled from social-media Web sites and penned by horrified patients who visited some of the clinics.
A sample of the reviews: “Avoid at all costs”; “The Waiting Room is dirty and smelled of dried urine”; “DO NOT EVER GO HERE”; “Filthy Medical Equipment looks like it’s from the 1970s”; and “She Balanced Her Tool Tray on a Garbage Can.”
The narrator says: “New York inspects everything: pizzerias, nail and tanning salons, movie theaters. But for more than a dozen years, it’s failed to inspect women’s clinics around the state.”
The Post reported last year that eight of New York’s 25 abortion clinics had not been inspected at all between 2000 and 2012, and five others were inspected only once in a dozen years.
The Health Department released that data — without identifying the names of the clinics — in response to a lawsuit filed by Chiaroscuro.
Following the outcry over the lack of inspections, the Health Department said last year it would re-inspect all 25 diagnostic and treatment facilities.

Now that Gosnell has done his dirty work, inspectors might be more inclined to do their jobs.
