Why He Performed Abortions

Speaking of his past work as an abortion doctor, Wong told CBN’s Faithwire it was primarily a financial decision, as he performed abortions at evening clinics in Sacramento, among other medical practices. …

Wong, one of a few doctors in the area performing abortions, said he simply believed he was providing a service to women and wanted to be compassionate in how he delivered that care. …

Still, Wong knew what was really happening during abortion procedures and argued most doctors performing them fully understand what’s required and what’s unfolding.

“Before doing an abortion, you’ve got to do an ultrasound to accurately assess how far along this woman’s pregnancy is — how big is her baby?” he said. “Because, if you are wrong, and either she’s not pregnant in the uterus or if she’s too far along, bad things can happen.” …

Despite understanding what was happening, it took Wong time to realize his actions were wrong. After becoming a Christian, he said he went through a “process” until he came to realize “people are infinitely valuable [and] made in God’s image.” …

The Roots of Transformation

More specifically, the starting point for Wong’s abortion transformation came when an 18-year-old patient he was caring for suddenly died after giving birth. …

As Wong struggled to cope and feared he would lose his job, he said he “made a deal with God.”

“I prayed, ‘God, if you can get me through this mess, I’ll be yours,’” he recalled. “And so that’s how I became a Christian.”

Ultimately, his professional situation was resolved, though the crisis sent Wong on an emotional path to find Jesus — and away from performing abortions. His life dramatically changed as he began to attend church, and God started to work on his heart.

In particular, it was a sermon about partial-birth abortion — a process many liken to infanticide — that turned things around for Wong. …

“That made me realize, ‘God, you are telling me that abortion is wrong,’” he said. “And within a short period of time, as I was walking back to the parking lot, I realized that what I was doing with my small plastic tube was no less barbaric than what people who were doing these partial-birth abortions were doing.” …
