 The Supreme Court is dismissing an appeal by Idaho officials that would ban emergency room doctors from performing abortions. This means a lower court ruling that allows doctors to perform abortions in emergency situations will stay in effect for the time being. The decision has no impact on any other states. Dr. Jessica Evans-Wall is an ER physician in Idaho. Our goal as physicians is to take care of anyone who walks in through the doors for any reason and provide them evidence-based appropriate medical care.
