The Nocturnists · Two abortion providers grapple with their post-Roe reality · 9 Oct 2023 podcast

And you gotta pace yourself and you gotta find ways to make the work, both the advocacy work and the clinical work, sustainable for you because

This fight will take a very long time.

I mean, it took the right fifty years to dismantle and overturn Roe v.

Wade and it will take us a long time to bring back those rights.

Um, but I think it can be done.

I think there's a lot of people doing incredible work and I think that the popular opinion is generally on our side.

Um, but it'll be a lot of work.

The Nocturnists · 3 - Post-Roe America: Trust Women · 5 Oct 2023 podcast

Before we jump into today's episode, I wanted to tell you about a podcast that I love and that I think can help us understand this moment in abortion care. voice-verified

Hosted by Dahlia Lithwick, Slate's Amicus Podcast is all about the Supreme Court and the law, but you don't have to be a constitutional lawyer to listen to it. voice-verified

And actually, last week I had the pleasure of talking with Dahlia as a guest on the show. voice-verified

Here's Dahlia. voice-verified

I'm Doctor Allie Block. voice-verified

It was the winter of twenty twenty two, the first time I flew out to Wichita, Kansas. voice-verified

I'd been an attending in California for eight years and a first trimester abortion provider for over a decade. voice-verified

But I wanted to learn second trimester abortions. voice-verified

Both because I was moving to a new part of the country that needed second trimester providers, and also because I knew the Dobbs decision was coming. voice-verified

And I worried that soon a lot of women wouldn't be able to get their abortions in the first trimester. voice-verified

So I went to Trust Women, one of the highest volume abortion clinics in the country. voice-verified

Not as an attending, but as a 40-year-old medical trainee. voice-verified
