I absolutely think that comprehensive reproductive health education should be offered in medical school, and I absolutely think that medical students should have the opportunity to learn about abortion. During medical school, we have the opportunity to learn about any number of other procedures, why should abortion be any different?
Now, don't misinterpret this to mean that I want to perform abortions. I don't want women to suffer unwanted and unintended pregnancy. That is, as some people have mentioned, akin to oncologists wanting people do develop cancer, or pediatric neurologists hoping that kids develop intractable seizures. Abortion should be the last line of treatment when birth control has failed. . .and it is my job first and foremost to make sure that my patients (a) have access to birth control that works for them, (b) that they know how to use it, and (c) that if they ever feel that the method they chose isn't working for them, they know that they can try a different method. I want to help women prevent unwanted pregnancies so that they never have to go through such an invasive and unpleasant procedure.
But if all that caution fails, abortion must be safe and available. Were I standing in a room with another person of my same blood type who was hemorrhaging to death, and were I holding transfusion equipment, I would not be required under any law to give that person my blood, even if I was the only person who could save them. You are never required to use your body to sustain the life of another entity against your will. Even if you believe an embryo or fetus is a person, this still holds true.
Oh, and though I know it's not the majority of pregnancy terminations, I've seen a good number of terminations done for women who were carrying badly deformed, nonviable fetuses. There is nothing sadder than watching a woman (and often, her partner) who has conceived a deeply wanted baby and has discovered that there is something terribly wrong with it, walk out the door of her obstetrician's office with tears in her eyes and a referral in her hand. Abortions will always have to be performed for one reason or another, and there's got to be someone who knows how to do them safely and effectively.
