21. It's already happening in Florida.
Tue Apr 22, 2025, 06:43 AM
Apr 2025

My PA, who did all the gyno services for my GP, did her residency in OBGYN and left Florida when the abortion ban started because her plan was to eventually start her own OBGYN practice in Florida. She also has a child who's special needs and DeSantis cut pretty much all special education funding in the state's public schools. My GP practices medicine for low income/uninsured and that's why I go to him--I know he cares about people more than money, unlike most of Florida. Her departure is a HUGE loss for him!

Republican values are not human values, so those doing humanitary work leave the state for themselves, for their kids, for their sanity, and for their livelihoods.
