Doctors for Choice is offering a new service for women with “complications in pregnancy to discuss their abortion options in Malta and abroad.”

In a statement, it said that this “new service provided on a voluntary basis by Prof Isabel Stabile and Dr Natalie Psaila, is for any pregnant person in Malta with a complication during pregnancy who wants to discuss their abortion options in Malta or abroad.”

The doctors explained that “any person can call, regardless of whether they are at home or admitted to a hospital. They will be able to discuss whether they are likely to qualify for a termination in Malta, and if not what services are available abroad.”

“This service is being added to the already established Abortion Doula Support Service provided by Prof Isabel Stabile and Dr Natalie Psaila. Apart from helping women with complications in pregnancy, this service also provides information to women undertaking an abortion with pills at home or in a clinic abroad,” the doctors said.

They stated that that “abortion is a reality in Malta and this service is meant to reduce the likelihood of harm to women by ensuring they can spot any complications and seek treatment, and to avoid the use of dangerous abortion methods.”

People wanting to make use of this service can call on +356 20341683.

The doctors can also be contacted by email on Isabel.stabile@doctorsforchoice.mt and Natalie.psaila@doctorsforchoice.mt

Doctors for Choice (Malta) is a registered non-profit organisation, a partner Organisation with Global Doctors for Choice (GDC).
