Pratima Gupta, MD, MPH is a board member of Physicians for Reproductive Choice and Health. She currently practices and provides abortions at Kaiser Permanente East Bay in Oakland, CA and the University of California, San Francisco.
I refuse to let the anti-health reform demonstrators represent me or my patients. As an ob/gyn, I can say unequivocally that our country needs health care reform now, and it must provide comprehensive reproductive health care to all.
This year, in honor of the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Physicians for Reproductive Choice and Health created a letter thanking the brave physicians who provided abortions before the Roe decision. Join me in thanking the courageous men and women who helped make abortion legal for women in America.
