Merle Hoffman is president and CEO of Choices Women’s Medical Center in Queens, New York, which performs roughly 10,000 abortions annually along with additional health services (from STD testing to prenatal care)) to 50,000 women each year. In January, her memoir, Intimate Wars: The Life and times of the Woman Who Brought Abortion from the Back Alley to the Boardroom, will be released.
In a recent Forbes interview, she used words like "serendipitous," "romantic," and "destiny" to describe her career. "We see over 40,000 patients every year between abortions, women’s health and prenatal. It takes complexity, it takes intensity to take care of the requirements to make sure that every woman who comes here is served with compassion and gets the highest quality of care. And we do all this in a war zone! There’s never been a recognition of what this takes. . . . At the highest, we were doing almost 20,000 abortions a year in the late 80s, early 90s. Now we see about 10,000. It depends on demographics, the number of women in the country in the most fertile age group."
