In MS before tort reform there were I think 2 practicing OB-GYNs in the state.
I am just going to go ahead and call bull-fucking-shit on that one.
You realize Mississippi has a medical school and that OB/GYN rotations are required for all medical students and that to have OB/GYN rotations you need OB/GYNs and residents, right?
You are right, we should totally defer to your expertise on this matter.
You're right. I overstated it. But there were still counties without an OB-GYN and the AMA declared MS a medical catastrophe.
