GP on abortion protests: 'My patients do not need to see your placards with your value judgements'
Dr Brian Kennedy THE WOMEN COME with everything. Contraception needs, infertility, threatened miscarriage, recurrent pregnancy loss.
General Practice is by its nature the heart of community care. That means everyone – your mothers, fathers, siblings and friends and these patients come with every imaginable issue. They cross the same threshold and pass through the same gate. Prostatism, abusive relationships, terminal illness. Embarrassing illness. Stress. Erectile dysfunction. Menstrual irregularities. Menopause. Rashes, STIs, Baby checks. Covid. Certification for minor illness and work absence.
We have clergy and devoutly religious people who attend for their own private medical needs. There are women who have their own abortion stories. A lady attends an annual summer visit with her older parents. We co-consult and safety net for the “what-ifs” that may befall her parents when she goes back to her life abroad.
