With no clinics in the Madison area currently administering second trimester abortions, a group of UW Health gynecologists is considering a plan to provide the procedure to patients who seek it.
“The physicians involved believe this is part of a comprehensive plan of care for reproductive health,” said UW Health spokeswoman Lisa Brunette. “Right now there is no clinic in the area that provides that type of termination and the physicians involved believe there is a public health responsibility to provide them, so they wish to move forward.”
