Hoag's underhanded abortion ban

In Newport Beach, a new ban on abortions means that Hoag Hospital's OB/GYN services are constrained not by medical resources, medical judgment or the law, but by Roman Catholic doctrine.



In a most underhanded and insidious way, women's reproductive health rights in California were dealt a significant blow last month. That was when the availability of elective abortions at Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian, one of Orange County's elite medical centers, was abruptly ended.
