Pro-Life OB-GYNs Are Banned from Hosting Exhibit Booth at Medical Conference

Denver, Colo., Mar 1, 2023 / 13:47 pm An association of pro-life obstetricians has literally been canceled by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).

For the past 15 years, the group has had an exhibit booth at the annual conference of the Council on Resident Education in Obstetrics and Gynecology (CREOG) and the Association of Professors of Gynecologists and Obstetricians (APGO), which is hosted by ACOG.

This year, without warning, leaders of the pro-life doctors’ group arrived at the conference at the Gaylord National Resort and Conference Center in National Harbor, Maryland, only to be told that their exhibit booth had been canceled.

Dr. Christina Francis, incoming CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians (AAPLOG), says she suspects they were denied an exhibit booth because of their opposition to abortion — a position that puts them at odds with the conference’s organizers.

Francis took to social media to register her disappointment — and to challenge the head of ACOG, Dr. Maureen Phipps, to a debate about “the impact of elective abortion on the health of women.”

“I will meet her anytime, any place so that we can present both sides of this issue and allow not only the general public but also the next generation of physicians to decide for themselves what the evidence supports,” Francis said in a video message posted to Twitter on Feb. 27.

“Despite multiple requests for an explanation as to why, the only explanation we’ve received is a vague explanation that we disagree with ACOG, presumably on the issue of abortion. This is very interesting considering the theme of this year’s conference, which is building bridges,” Francis said in the video.

You’d think they would be totally approving considering their practice depends on “customers” being pro-life...!?!?

The woke logic, it pretzels.

Time to create new, ethical medical/certification associations under state authority and tell the AMA and other leftist organizations to go to Hell.
