We recently learned that Ms. Cox, the Texas woman seeking an emergency abortion in Texas, left the state to seek much needed medical care. It’s unconscionable Texas policymakers force her & other Texas women to leave their homes & communities to receive the care they need.

1/2

[Jocelyn J. Fitzgerald MD @jjfitzgeraldMD]

All of us in Ob/Gyn nodding in agreement 👀

Also, Williams is the reason that OB and Gyn are pigeoned into one specialty instead of two, causing centuries of harm to the way we deliver care to women because he didn’t want to be called a “man midwife”

[Stella Safo, MD MPH @AmmahStarr]

Everything, including medicine, is political when the government legislates our bodies.

[ACOG @acog]

The Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson is a destructive setback for ob-gyns and patients. However, we’ll continue with unwavering resolve to support all people who struggle against interference with the patient–physician relationship.

[Judy Woodruff @JudyWoodruff]

3 dissenters, Justices Breyer, Sotomayor and Kagan write "In overruling Roe and Casey, this Court betrays its guiding principles. With sorrow—for this Court, but more, for the many millions of American women who have today lost a fundamental constitutional protection—we dissent."

[Kent DeLay @kjdelay1]

Healthcare workers have a lot of challenges

Worrying about being murdered on the job shouldn’t be one of them

[Elizabeth Nash @ElizNash]

#BREAKING The #Oklahoma governor just signed a *total* abortion ban with a Texas-style enforcement mechanism. It goes into effect immediately making Oklahoma the first state to totally outlaw abortion since #RoeVWade in 1973. What this means 🧵

[ACOG Action @ACOGAction]

Oklahoma’s newly passed abortion ban is a gross interference with the patient—clinician relationship. It forces personal beliefs onto others and strips women and pregnant people of their bodily autonomy. ACOG wholly condemns this egregious assault on patients and clinicians.

[Layan Alrahmani, MD, FACOG @DrAlrahmani]

🧵 Hi. I’m an MFM physician. Here is a list of women I took care of who chose to end their pregnancy

🔺Fetal chromosomal abnormalities
🔺Complex fetal heart defect
🔺Hydrops fetalis (heart failure in the fetus)
🔺Skeletal dysplasia

[Jordan Emont MD MPH ScM @drjordanemont]

For a country that is so anti-mandate it’s a big leap to mandate pregnancy on millions of women. #WomensRights #RoeVWade #abortionrights #abortionishealthcare

Get the blood banks prepared for massive transfusion

Stock broad spectrum antibiotics

ICUs prepare for sepsis

Surgery prepare for bowel perforations and diversions

IR prepare to embolize more uterine arteries than you’ve ever imagined

Gyn will be calling you.

[Marie Anderson, MD @_marieanders]

I frequently get asked why time and again I’ve chosen not to move back to my home state—harmful and heartbreaking decisions like this are one reason why. Saddened but not surprised.

Breaking News: Oklahoma lawmakers approved a near-total ban on abortion as the Supreme Court weighs a case that could overturn Roe v. Wade later this year. https://t.co/KMJVyJhIn0

From afar, we admire talent. Up close, what counts most is character.

You can impress people with your skills, but you earn their trust by standing for something greater than yourself.

There is no higher achievement than treating others kindly and living with integrity.

[Marie Anderson, MD @_marieanders]

Excellent talk tonight by @alexbcarter to @BrownOWIMS on negotiation and asking for more. An important perspective on owning our accomplishments, especially during this residency interview season. Thank you!

[Marta Perez M.D. @DrMartaPerez]

Pregnancy is not a health-neutral event. There are immediate and long term adverse health effects. In the US, without paid sick or parental leave, it is a financial & economic hardship to be pregnant and give birth. Birthing & adoption are not reasonable alternatives to abortion.

[Clarke @pleasuresystems]

A lot of you should try being in the top 1% of listeners to women

[Erin Zwiener @ErinForYall]

When you say, “Just let Texas secede”, Texans fighting for change hear, “Your work doesn’t matter.”

Support us instead. We’re here. We’re fighting. And most Texans agree with us.
