In anticipation of the Roe v. Wade ruling, lawmakers and physicians are warning against so-called “fake clinics,” described as pregnancy crisis centers that use “bait-and-switch” tactics

“Unfortunately, it is a trap for people who come there. And really what they’re trying to do is to people from being able to obtain abortions in various ways,’’ says Dr. Jennifer Chin, an OBGYN and fellow with the Physicians for Reproductive Health organization. “One of the ways is that they provide very biased counseling where they essentially encourage patients who come to them to continue the pregnancy.
Regarding her clinic, Dr. Babcock says, “ need to be careful about our advertising, but we also want to be honest. So on our website, it does say ‘free abortion screening’ or ‘pre-abortion consultations.’ And when someone calls in, we let them know that we do not refer or provide abortion. We provide information to help them to be able to understand other options.”
She says this is an issue particularly in states that have designated abortion bans beginning at certain weeks.
