Abortion Clinic Employee Shares How Some Pro-Life Women Act When They Come In As Customers

At the clinic I worked at we used to put a pink sticky note on their charts to give a heads-up to the back office staff. That way you’d be prepped for the hostility. I had a woman tell me I would burn in hell as I held her hand during her abortion.

Another woman refused to wait in the same waiting room as the other patients because she didn’t think she was “irresponsible” the way they were. We obliged to protect our other patients from her hostility.

Yet another woman laughed and told the doctor performing her procedure that she thought he should go to jail. After he had performed the abortion, of course.

A woman became furious when we told her we needed consent to perform the abortion. She threw magazines from our waiting room at our staff after we told her we wouldn’t do it without her signing consent forms. She tried to schedule with us several times. We kept referring her out.
