CPCs are not only misleading, they also dispense false and medically inaccurate information to women. It is imperative that the medical community speak out on the deceptive practices of CPCs and help NARAL Pro-Choice CA to keep women safe.

Keep women safe from what…babies? You’d THINK someone with the educational background to be a pediatrician would have a little more SENSE than to say something like that….guess not! I don’t think this woman has ever set foot inside a CPC, she’s just being a mouthpiece for pro-aborts. Ironic that she’s a pediatrician…her views could actually cut down on her “business” -More abortions = fewer children…DUH!
What specifically is the medically inaccurate information?? How frightening to think she is a pediatrician!
Well said, Carla. I don’t understand why babies are seen as an enemy, or pregnancy is viewed as a disease. Pediatrician my a**.
Mothers should know by now they can visit Planned Parenthood and learn about her child’s heart-tones.
After clicking on link after link, I was able to read the ‘report.’ It was vague, and of course false. 3 independent separate sources have published study results linking abortion with breast cancer this year. Birth control pills and the like do in fact have many adverse side effects and risks (ever read the tiny font inserts that come with them?), condoms are frequently ineffective, and last but not least, abortion does often result in fertility problems as well as premature delivery in subsequent pregnancies. So, as usual, the pro-aborts lie.
But let’s look at what happens A.) when a woman leaves an abortion clinic with regret and B.) when a woman leaves a crisis pregnancy center with regret:
A.) A woman leaves Planned Parenthood, she will be out $300 – $1,200 unless our state, local, or federal gov’t has paid for the abortion. She is sick, bleeding, and her baby is dead. She can never ever go back on her ‘choice.’
B.) A woman leaves a CPC. She has spent no money. The taxpayer has spent no money. Her baby is still alive. She can changer her mind as many times as she wants and still her baby is alive. She can go back on her choice and kill the child anytime up to delivery.
What worries me is that we may get to a point where an underground railroad will have to be established to save babies from the “pro-choice” advocates who’s only “choice” is death.
I despise the term pro-choice and wish this “group” would come up with a more accurate name for themselves.
I agree.. this woman is a pediatrician?? Shame on whoever gave her degree.
Hmmm….apparently, pro-abort medical graduates don’t even want to acknowledge what they learned in med school.
This “pediatrician” should ask for a refund on her tuition …

Oh, yes. Didn’t you know that pro-life advocates with free pregnancy assistance and a rudimentary knowledge of gestational biology are dangerous to pregnant women? They might cause spontaneous delivery before abortions can be administered and money extracted!
*eye roll*
On a more serious note, this is a good sign in a way. Pro-aborts would not be attacking CPCs if CPCs were not a threat to abortion.
NARAL quoting a pediatrician regarding abortion is as misleading and irrelevant as the largest abortion provider in the U.S. calling themselves “Planned Parenthood” claiming they support families.
Question
Do medical students go through all of the fetal development etc. and then SOME decide to kill babies for a living? Do they take the Hippocratic Oath(first do no harm)and then start at the nearest abortion clinic?
I would love to know what has to happen in their brains to turn off the knowledge that they have just learned!!
Maybe they continually say, “Trust Women.” to themselves.
Hi Carla,
I think the anti-life brain washing starts way before medical school and they latch on to pro-choice mentors during their residencies and internships. They listen to the pro-choice media and groups like Catholics for Choice and tell themselves they’ve chosen a noble calling. I may be mistaken, but I think the Hippocratic Oath has been optional for a decade or two (or more?).
WOW! So…. how many of you have been to medical school and graduated with a PHD?….. just wondering… lol
CPC’s do not tell women about ALL of their options. The information they give out is VERY selective and is all within a predetermined political narrative. CPC’s are just a political tool used by anti-chioce groups, just like “sidewalk councilors”. Whereas, Women’s Health Centers, like Planned Parenthood actually help women long before they become pregnant. Oh yes I know, “they help themselves to your wallet for dead babies…” but, the truth is that less than 5% of what Planned Parenthood does is abortion care. The other 95% is in contraception and disease prevention/treatment. This ratio is also how the federal grant money is spent. You want to know where your tax dollars go… mostly to prevent the spread of STD’s.
By not informing women of all their options you are giving them incomplete information and incomplete information is what led us to war with Iraq…. again… So, you can easily see how leaving some of the story out is almost as bad as lying from the start. You may not agree with the information and treatment you can receive at a REAL women’s health clinic, but most of the respected medical community do.
And planned parenthood pushes ONLY ONE choice: ABORTION. They don’t talk about parenthood or adoption.
CPCs offer their services for free.
By Biggz’ logic, I should be notified by all of my ethnic dining options when I go to Taco Bell. “Ma’am, did you know we don’t serve sushi?” or “Sir, I feel I must tell you if you want bratwurst we don’t have it…”
Lol!

Biggz’ logic would also demand that a restaurant that served only cruelty-free meals would have to make sure everyone coming in was told this.
“Ma’am, we are opposed to animal cruelty so we serve neither veal nor foie gras, and if you would like any you have to go somewhere else.”
Honestly, Biggz, it’s simple like this. If Planned Parenthood didn’t do abortions 1) they would still be performing (to use your numbers) 95% of the services they do now (That’s hardly any change at all, really! So, it’s no biggie for them…right?), and 2) pro-lifers would leave them alone. Ta-bing!
Biggz,
I was told it was just a bunch of cells, Biggz before my abortion. I was shown a filmstrip of a bunch of red circles. I was 10 weeks along.
How informed was I about fetal development, Biggz?
How informed was I before I made the biggest mistake of my life?
Biggz, I’m sorry, your figures are off. It’s more like 35%.
The pro-abortion philosophy does not hold water. CPCs offer services that abortion clinics do not. Since abortion clinics are not willing to help women who DON’T want to abort, then they should shut up and stop making up figures and excuses and lies. Their entire platform is built on lies.
How long ago was that Carla? I have been in a couple Planned Parenthoods once for and abortion consultation and we were informed of ALL our options. The option to keep the baby is already known to anyone who gets pregnant so what’s the point of telling them what they already know? We were given accurate information and even directed to the website for further information and questions. We were fully and accurately informed and they answered every question we asked. They did not refuse to answer question “even the one about the size of her hoohoo afterward lol” Also, there is no need for anyone here to direct me to Lila’s website! Her video’s are highly edited and bias, which is no surprise since she learned how to make her videos from James O’Keefe whose a 4th degree black belt editing master and criminal.
I’m sorry you regret your decision, but that doesn’t give you the right to deny all other Americans from making their own decisions about life and death.
“I’m sorry you regret your decision, but that doesn’t give you the right to deny all other Americans from making their own decisions about life and death.”

Hold the front page. You admit that abortion is a choice for either life or death? And since you “already know” that both the parents will survive, the only other human being the choice is being made for is the kid.
So…you’re totally cool with making a choice about whether an innocent third party who’s done nothing to deserve it lives or dies entirely without their own knowledge or consent. That is the only possible conclusion here.
Dude, I thought you were just a troll, but that is straight-up, unvarnished evil.
Marylee, My figures are accurate for the planned parenthood in my area which runs 7 clinics. Also, my local Planned Parenthood does give out adoption referrals. It is a misconception that Planned Parenthood wants more abortions when they spend so much more of their time and resources trying to prevent them with contraception. Oh, and lastly religion is built on lies not the Pro-choice Movement.
Actully I was reffering to birth and hospice or abortion and DNR. You choose to kill cells when you have a brain tummor removed.
My abortion was almost 20 years ago. But why don’t you tell me that times have changed and PP is now informing women ALLL about fetal development and showing 3D ultrasounds and pointing out every body part of an innocent human baby??
Oh, and please tell me how PP helps a young, scared, pregnant teen who doesn’t want an abortion?
I could use a good laugh.
It is so much more than regret. My daughter died in an abortion clinic. Instead of telling them where to go I believed their lies and her life ended. She was growing inside of me when I walked in and gone when I walked out. I left her there.
I am hardly alone in my experience.
Posted by: Biggz at July 12, 2010 8:33 PM
No, you weren’t.
Oh and Biggz,
You didn’t answer my question.
How is telling me that my fully formed 10 week preborn baby was “a bunch of cells” or showing me a bunch of red circles fully informing me of fetal development? How is that informed consent?
“I have been in a couple Planned Parenthoods once for and abortion consultation and we were informed of ALL our options. The option to keep the baby is already known to anyone who gets pregnant so what’s the point of telling them what they already know?”
Because raising a baby to adulthood is much harder than snuffing out its life by aborting.
Not my biggest issue with Biggz’s statements but just so ya know…
People graduate from medical school with an MD (Medical Doctor) or DO (Doctor of Osteopathy) NOT a PhD (Doctor of Philosophy).
I graduated with my degree in Nursing. CPCs give out far more comprehensive information than PP ever has, or will.
I doubt BIGGZ has ever been in a CPC, either. Just another PP ‘parrot’. Well trained to repeat the PP mantra.
Elisabeth,
Received an email from David Bereit 40 Days for Life and one of the quotes was from you!
About your teen daughter starting a prolife group!
Sweet!
Nope, Biggz, still wrong. You’re basing your figures on local Planned Parenthoods? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
And as far as religion goes, you obviously don’t pay attention to these boards–I’m not religious at all. My pro-life philosophies are completely secular. Also, I used to be pro-choice. The pro-“choice” movement IS built on lies. The figures you make up, the numbers of women who died from “back alley abortions,” the perceived “need” for abortions, the complete disregard for logic and the lack of scientific integrity….It’s a movement based on lies, selfishness, and slogans. Abortion is NOT needed, it is NOT necessary, and it is the most abhorrent thing humanity has ever seen.
Your rhetoric and arguments are flimsy and insubstantial.
I doubt BIGGZ has ever been in a CPC, either. Just another PP ‘parrot’. Well trained to repeat the PP mantra.
