Here's two cents from the medical side of things. What we're being taught now is that patient autonomy is pretty much #1. If they've got it together mentally, then the physician is going to do what they can to address the patient's wishes. If a physician is not comfortable with an abortion, they are well within their right to not conduct abortion procedures. They must, however, put the patient in touch with providers who will perform the desired service.

 

Being a physician isn't about making choices for the patient, it's about informing them of the options that are available and letting the patient decide for themselves what they're going to do.

Yes but generally those medical procedures are required or elective.

 

And why do conservatives want it but liberals' don't?

To support the opposite sides of the argument. Conservatives want the woman to see the fetus looking like an actual baby and possibly dissuade her from having the abortion. The pro-choicers want a disassociation between the fetus and the procedure. It's a simple as that Woody.

You think otherwise?

I think it's unnecessary and serves as nothing more than an attempted guilt trip - it's not a doctor's job to guilt trip people into a procedure, and the times I've seen it done for other procedures, it's done nothing but antagonize the patient. There is no benefit for the patient in doing so, and as such it's an unnecessary medical procedure.

OTH, it gives the woman a chance not to ruin her life to the point of suicide.

 

... and on the other hand, farming increases your chances of committing suicide. We can't let people go around farming either.

"The suicide rate was highest among farming, fishing, and forestry workers (84.5 suicides per 100,000 persons"

You're a physician Vapor? That's fantastic!...let me guess, an anesthesiologist?

 

Eh bad guess...nitrous oxide, desflurane, isoflurane are not really vapors.

First of course it's a guilt trip. Conscience should probably be part of the decision . Is it better to hide that part ? Does that make it a more informed decision? Second if you don't think Drs try to influence people about procedures you're out of your mind.

All this proves is that personal influence needs to be removed from the exam room entirely.

It doesn't prove anything sir. It proves that the pro abortion proponents don't want conscience considered.

 

A great example would be showing women after pictures when they want breast reduction surgery specifically referencing the disappointment in the faces of the men that look at her.

:D

There is no reason that the government should mandate the ultrasound be done. If churches want to guilt you into not getting an abortion, then they're free to put up bumper stickers and billboards of aborted fetuses and telling us how we support murder. Keep the medicine side out of it and as neutral a party as possible.
