Doctors and Nurses Don’t Want to Do Abortions

Victor Black, operator of a free standing abortion clinic

“I’m sure there are some gynecologists in the area who would say, “That guy doesn’t do anything but abortions.” On the other hand, I have many gynecologists who refer to me – they’re very fine gynecologists – but they don’t want to do abortions themselves, largely because of their staff. Some nursing staffs don’t want to do abortions….They just don’t want to do it.”

Carole Joffe. Doctors of Conscience: the Struggle to Provide Abortion before and after Roe Versus Wade (Boston, Massachusetts: Beacon press, 1995) 158

This quote gives further indication that the reason there is such a shortage of abortion providers is not pro-life intimidation, but the fact that so many abortionists find the work distasteful.
