ABC’s ‘The Good Doctor’ Depicts the Unborn as Lives Worth Saving

Breitbart Reports: The ABC medical drama The Good Doctor has hit a pro-life note several times in the last few seasons and this week’s episode did so again, this time by seeming to admit that a fetus in the womb is a life worth trying to save.


In the March 6 episode, “Old Friends,” a pregnant patient in distress is told that her illness will likely compromise her health and the health of her unborn baby. And as her two attending physicians describe her options, she is told that her condition will likely lead to her death if she insists on trying to save her baby. However, one of the doctors admits that she would try to save the life of the fetus if she were in the patient’s shoes.


Dr. Morgan Reznick (Fiona Gubelmann) suggests abortion immediately and without hesitation. Her fellow attending, Dr. Jordan Allen (Bria Samone Henderson), is not quite as prepared to wave off the life of the child that the patient is carrying.


In one scene, stricken mother Sonja (Elyse Maloway) is being counseled on her options in consultation with Drs. Reznick and Allen during which Reznick says terminating the pregnancy is the safest option, but Allen suggests she would seek other options to save the baby:

Sonja: “What would you do…if it was your baby? ”
Reznick: “Termination is the safest. ”
Sonja: “I was talking to Dr. Allen.”
Allen: “I would…pray on it. ”
Sonja: “And then? I want to know what you would do. ”
Allen: “I think I…would try to save the baby. ”
Sonja: “We have to fight for our Esther.”
