“Pregnant patients and my patients know exactly what they want. I don’t do options counseling. Most people know exactly what they want when they get here. I’m not trying to patronize them or act like they don’t already know their options. Right?” — Dr. Julie Amaon
“One in four people in their reproductive health years choose [to end a pregnancy with abortion]. This is very common. It’s very safe, and I don’t think until you have to go through this process yourself that you really realize how hard it is for people to get these services and to get this general reproductive healthcare that they need. The hoops are kind of ridiculous.” — Dr. Julie Amaon |
