Wisconsin abortion ban might lead to Illinois border clinic, ‘clandestine’ action, provider says

Wisconsin’s 1849 law also could make it difficult for UW School of Medicine and Public Health gynecology residents to get abortion training as they do now at Planned Parenthood in Madison, Laube said. UW might need to send residents to the Chicago area for such training, he said. UW Health spokesperson Emily Kumlien said the medical school will “work to ensure continuity of the robust training opportunities we provide.”
