then perhaps they should leave the profession if they’re so unsure of themselves. they’re supposed to be among some of the most educated people in society and they can’t read and understand a law? or hire a lawyer?
also have you asked the women what they want? because my wife for instance is against abortion. both of my sisters as well.
Yes, that's the biggest concern for a (probably overworked) doctor, read laws and hire lawyers to make sure if they're allowed to perform a medical procedure.

And I hope neither of them is dying while pregnant, willingly or not, and the doctor has to chose before doing the right thing and going to prison. If all three of them cannot realise this and why it's important to have a fucking say on the matter, they're either absurdly dumb or absurdly heartless. If they're willing to let women die of sepsis or be forced to give birth to unviable feti because they think their version of a diety tells them so, there is something wrong with them. (And I'm wording this as politely as I can, believe in whatever shit you want, but if your shit means letting people die of preventable causes because of your beliefs, you're a terrible person)
so again, if they can’t handle the job and know when it’s appropriate to give an abortion and when it isn’t then they need to quit.
