episode Episode 55-Inside the Medical Debate Over Abortion Pills with Dr. Catherine Wheeler cover

Beskrivelse

What happens when a doctor realizes, mid-procedure, that everything she was taught is wrong? On this episode of The LifeCast, Dr. Catherine Wheeler, a retired OB-GYN and former abortion provider, shares the moment her “blinders came off” when she suddenly recognized the humanity of the preborn child and knew she could never participate in abortion again. She reflects on how modern medical ethics have shifted from “do no harm” to a framework of patient autonomy that can prioritize choice even when it conflicts with health, alongside concerns about abortion pills and the growing politicization of organizations like ACOG. Now serving with AAPLOG, she advocates for Hippocratic, life-affirming medicine that refuses to use death as a therapeutic option and calls physicians to once again fight for the lives of both mothers and their children.
