As a young physician in Madison, I am frustrated with your coverage of reproductive health care. The recent article “Abortion doctor to leave UW” omits critical information, and the organization driving this story is a political group that opposes family planning services, including legal abortion. While she provides valuable abortion care, billing Dr. Caryn Dutton as “abortion doctor” belittles the range of contributions she has made to our community. An exceptional obstetrician/gynecologist, Dutton offers the full range of reproductive health care – including family planning, preconception, prenatal, labor, delivery, postpartum and abortion care – with the utmost professionalism and integrity.
