College of Medicine members discuss abortion ban impacts with Spokane Public Radio

MD students abortion rights rally

MD students Carmen Abbe, Jessica McAllister, Anna Nichols, and Dr. Jaime Bowman, clinical education director, join Spokane Public Radio to discuss the impacts abortion bans may have on medical education, residency training, and more.

Almost half of OB/GYN residencies are in states where abortion bans may create major gaps in medical education.

“We’ve overcome a lot of things in this country, so to not only be a reality again, but be persecuted, and go to jail, for doing our job, is pretty unreal,” said MD student Carmen Abbe.
