  • Dr. Alicia Thompson didn't grow up with any kind of religious background, but when she went to med school to become an OB/GYN, and was met with the decision of whether or not to train to do abortions, she found herself at a moral crossroads. She began to dig deeper to better understand her own conscience, and that time of reflection led her first to become a "born-again" Christian, and eventually a Catholic, who now brings her faith to bear fully on her work as an OB/GYN.

    I know nobody will probably see this, and I will continue to look, but does anyone know how to become an OB/GYN or Certified Nurse Midwife as a Catholic? I really wanted to become an OB/GYN but I couldn't find any suitable, reliable, and Catholic residency programs/medical schools. (And to add in, I am a new catechumen, so I don't really know if such things exist, or a lot of Church teaching on everything.) And if I did, they were really far away from my family. It seems like after you take out everything like abortion, contraceptives, sterilizations, IVF, etc. then there isn't much left in the job of OB/GYN, and I wouldn't be able to do a lot in practice or residency unless I had my own practice. (Which I probably won't have the funds or other qualifications for.) Don't get me wrong, I am against those things. I am just in desperation to find a way to become this or a very similar profession. I tried looking into midwifery, but I don't know how that would work with salary and job opportunities. And from what I can understand, midwives still have responsibilities in contraceptive care or other things that the church may not agree with. And they cannot work with higher-risk patients or c-sections. (Which isn't a deal-breaker, and I would be okay if I didn't work with those.) Does anyone happen to have any insight, answers, or suggestions? I am really lost and stressing since I need to figure out my plan for college soon. You can reply at any time, and please do, it doesn't really matter if you see this 5 months later, I would just appreciate the insight. Thank you. :D
