WWAMI brings Idaho students to UW School of Medicine, will they go back home?
Since the Supreme Court struck down the right to an abortion in 2022, Idaho has enacted some of the strictest abortion laws in the country. For Idaho medical students at the University of Washington, the near total abortion ban creates uncertainty about whether they will go back home to practice.
Guests:
- Dr. Sarah Villarreal, associate professor at the University of Washington and practicing OB/GYN
- Emina Gulbis, 4th year Idaho WWAMI medical student
