A Los Angeles gynecologist has surrendered his medical license for allegedly hectoring a patient about Jesus and prescribing Bible study after she revealed having had an abortion 34 years prior.
The 63-year-old woman went to Dr. Lucien Cox in September 2021 for a routine exam, during which an assistant first asked a series of preliminary questions, including whether or not she had ever terminated a pregnancy. The woman said she underwent an elective abortion in 1987, according to a disciplinary filing by the Medical Board of California.
