Denver Newsroom, Jul 14, 2022 / 20:00 pm The ombudsman of Spain, Ángel Gabilondo, said he is concerned that because doctors are exercising their right to conscientious objection, there are places in the country where no abortions are performed in public medical facilities.
Gabilondo’s comments were revealed in a letter he sent to Mónica García, a leftist congresswoman in the legislature of the autonomous region of Madrid, which was leaked to the El País newspaper July 12.
El País, whose editorial line supports abortion, pointed out that Gabilondo, a member of the Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party and former minister of education, “warns that in the community of Madrid, voluntary interruptions of pregnancy (i.e., abortions) are not performed in public hospitals.”
Gabilondo also says that this situation “should be subject to assessment and analysis.”
Gabilondo acknowledges in his letter that conscientious objection is an individual right but considers that its application cannot prevent a woman from having an abortion in public facilities.
The president of the Madrid College of Physicians, Manuel Martínez-Sellés, after reviewing the El País article, said health care professionals are “surprised” by the ombudsman's intentions.
In a statement to ACI Prensa, CNA’s Spanish-language sister news agency, Martínez-Sellés said that doctors in the Spanish capital “are surprised by how they intend to force abortions to be performed in some public hospitals.”

Apparently most doctors still recognize abortion is murder.
Do you want a Dr performing a procedure on you against their will?
They won’t perform abortions, but they’ll recommend CoupFlu vaxxes to their pregnant patients...
Do they have a problem baking cakes?
Hopefully yes. I always thought, that for the most part, abortion is a money making scheme. I remember seeing Bill Clinton on TV, saying exactly that. I looked for the video, but I couldn’t find it.
...if it's about health, they should have no issues.
I don’t think murder is part of their ‘oath’, unless they adhere to the Demoncrats agenda.
