Cesare Santangelo is a well-known late-term abortionist whose facility, the Washington Surgi-Clinic, is located in Washington, D.C., where there are no gestational limits on abortion. Santangelo’s facility currently advertises the abortion pill and surgical abortions up to 27 weeks of pregnancy.
However, in March of 2022, pro-lifers recovered the bodies of five children aborted by Santangelo late in pregnancy, four of whom medical experts believed to have been between 26 and 32 weeks gestational age at the time of their deaths. Following the recovery of intact deceased baby remains from his facility, Santangelo stands accused of potential criminal actions, including illegal D&X (“partial-birth”) abortions and violations of the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act.
Live Action filmed several undercover videos at Santangelo’s facility, including one that shows Santangelo assuring a mother that her premature infant would not be allowed to live should it survive an abortion at his facility, and another video shows a nurse assuring a woman that the facility commits abortions on “a lot” on women 28 weeks pregnant or even further along in pregnancy.
Live Action News has previously reported Google Reviews of Washington Surgi-Clinic, including one shocking review from an alleged former patient who says she regretted her abortion decision during the horrific process and asks if her baby survived his abortion at 27 weeks’ gestation. This article will highlight four more Google Reviews of Washington Surgi-Clinic, published within the past year. These reviews describe a botched abortion, cruel treatment by staff, severe pain, and unsanitary facility conditions.
“Now that I’m finally done bleeding after THREE MONTHS I can write this review…”
This review claims that a patient suffered a botched abortion, had to visit the ER, and bled after the abortion of her 10-week preborn baby for three months.
According to the review, when the patient returned to the facility after experiencing bleeding and spotting for a long period of time, facility staff allegedly told her: “You’ll be fine; it’s just old blood; you should be on your period by the end of this month.”
The review also mentions that facility staff allegedly gave the patient an unsanitary wipe with someone else’s blood on it, and that staff told the patient to go to McDonald’s while waiting for her cervix to soften and for when the doctor would have time to see her. The review mentions that “the wait is super long,” suggesting that Santangelo and his staff have plenty of gruesome business.
“Very ghetto”
Another review by an alleged former patient describes the facility as “very ghetto,” and claims the nurse didn’t wash her hands before taking the patient’s blood. The patient describes the staff as “not welcoming at all” and “very unprofessional.” She adds that “the water is nasty” and “the wait was really outrageous,” implying — like the previous review — that Santangelo and his staff have their hands full with murderous work.
“Horrible…”
Another alleged former patient begins this review with the statement, “Going to this place was very traumatic.”
The author goes on to describe an incompetent staff member who struggled to take the patient’s blood, and a dirty examination room with what she assumed was “a tube that had blood in it on the floor.”
The author relates that she was in a lot of pain during her abortion procedure, and the head nurse responded to her with inconsideration and rudeness. “She had said to me ‘hey hey you need to calm down and be quiet you are scaring the other girls in the waiting room. You wanted to be a big girl so its time to act like one. When you are alone you are loud.” Just as the previous review, this review mentions that the wait time for the doctor is long at this facility.
“They treat you like an animal!”
The following review by an alleged former patient at the facility warns other women not to get abortions from Santangelo because of her claimed horrific experience. “I FELT PUSHED, RUSHED & TRICKED. The ‘operating room’ is a dirty place. They will tell you one thing and THEN ONCE YOU’VE PAID AND START THE PROCESS THEY TREAT YOU LIKE [YOU’RE] AN ANIMAL!”
The author of the post says she hopes she isn’t injured permanently and pleads with the reader not to go through with an abortion at the facility.
“I pray I heal from this and my womb isn’t damaged,” she states. The author begs the reader, “PLEASE LISTEN…DO NOT GO HERE!…Please don’t do it to yourself!”
These Google Reviews, allegedly authored by women whose children were aborted by Santangelo, reiterate what pro-lifers have long known – Santangelo kills fully-formed, viable babies daily, and injures mothers in the process. Pro-life activists and legislators are working to preserve the evidence of Santangelo’s potential crimes — the five babies’ bodies rescued from his facility — so that justice can be upheld.
