‘Who Else Is Going To Do It?’: MN Doctor Travels To SD To Work At Its Sole Abortion Clinic
WCCO.com ^ | 5/3/22 | WCCO-TV Staff

Dr. Sarah Traxler works at the only abortion clinic in the state of South Dakota, but she lives hours away in Minnesota.

“I sort of feel at some level if I don’t do it and the other three physicians who do it with me, who else is going to do it? There wouldn’t be anything for these patients,” Traxler said.

Nearly two dozen states have severely restricted access to abortions. The new laws come as the Supreme Court decides on a Mississippi abortion law that could overturn Roe v. Wade.

The South Dakota clinic says it hasn’t been able to hire in-state doctors because they fear harassment and possible retaliation from hospitals.

Even with four doctors traveling from other states, nurse Misty, who asked that her last name not be used, said there is a five-week wait for an appointment.

They are angry about it,” Misty said, speaking about how patients feel. “They’re angry about the hoops they have to jump through to obtain health care.”

South Dakota is among the states where abortion services would immediately become illegal if Roe V. Wade is overturned and has some of the nation’s strictest abortion laws.

South Dakota requires a 72-hour waiting period between initial consultation and procedure and the same doctor for both appointments. The state’s Republican governor wants a law requiring three trips for a medication abortion — the consultation and one for each dose — an unprecedented restriction.

“These restrictions are going to disproportionately impact already marginalized communities that already have a difficult time accessing health care in general, but abortion care specifically,” Traxler said.

In one day, Traxler saw 10 patients and said most sacrificed to get to the appointment — a day’s pay, traveling hundreds of miles or struggling to get childcare.

Dr. Sarah Traxler. “Health Care Hero”

https://www.plannedparenthood.org/planned-parenthood-north-central-states/about-ppncs/media-relations/planned-parenthood-chief-medical-officer-wins-health-care-hero-award

Imagine that. A doctor who’s a ‘hero’ because half of her patients died.

No one can convince me that these abortionists aren’t the most prolific serial killers the world has ever know.

Little baby boys and little baby girls, fingers and toes - with those little baby noses that are so cute.

THAT'S what she's talking about - slicing and yanking their little arms and legs off, sucking their brains out of their skulls.

So brave.

But, I'd like to see his second set of books on the money he gets for selling baby parts.

I’m sure Dr. Mengele, and h.h. Holmes would gladly assist the “doctor”, in her ministrations.

Sarah Traxler isn't just an abortion provider. It's not just her job. It's her passion. She goes the extra mile. She'll do it for free if the mother can't pay. At night she lies awake worrying that somewhere there's a fetus who survived because she wasn't available to abort it.

We are all sinners. But I suspect that Judgment Day will be especially uncomfortable for her.

for all the horror stories, whether true or concocted to continue the business, i would think that someone would not wish ‘to be made’ in that business.

with those whom these doctors are deemed criminals, having the name known is not good.

i cannot sire, so for me this whole issue is moot.
