Cherry Hill, NJ — A medical emergency was reported on April 4, 2025, at the Cherry Hill Women’s Center, located at 500 North Kings Highway in New Jersey. The incident involved a 37-year-old woman undergoing an abortion procedure.
The Emergency
According to public records, a staffer from the abortion facility placed a 911 call around 11:00 A.M. While the official 911 audio was heavily redacted, it features an unusual and notable moment where the abortionist suddenly asks the caller for the phone in order to speak directly with the dispatcher. Abortionists rarely take care of 911 calls themselves. This may be an indicator that the situation was very serious. The abortionist also requested that emergency medical personnel enter the facility through the back entrance.
Though details of the emergency were redacted in the 911 audio, Operation Rescue obtained radio dispatch recordings that confirm hemorrhaging was at least one complication that required emergency transport. Hemorrhaging is a very common and dangerous abortion complication that can quickly become life-threatening. The patient’s current condition is unknown.
The Abortionist
During the 911 call, the abortionist identifies herself as Lisa Perriera, a late-term abortionist who apparently has already killed one patient: 22-year-old Lakisha Wilson in 2014. At that time, Perriera was an abortionist at the notorious Cleveland abortion mill, Preterm.. Lakisha Wilson also developed a hemorrhage during an abortion. In 2015, after obtaining Wilson’s autopsy, Operation Rescue reported:
According to official documents, including abortion records, EMT notes, hospital charts, an autopsy report, and 911 records all in Operation Rescue’s possession, Wilson began to hemorrhage during her abortion on March 21 and her blood pressure began to drop. Instead of stopping the abortion and tending to her patient, Perierra continued the abortion until Wilson went into hemorrhagic shock, suffered cardiac arrest, and stopped breathing. . . . CPR was started and she was shocked once, but those efforts were not successful at restarting her heart or respiration. Nine minutes later, a 911 call for help was placed.
Though no criminal charges were filed against Perriera, Operation Rescue and other pro-life groups called for a criminal investigation and disciplinary action, providing solid evidence.
Instead of justice, a year later the abortion cartel presented Perreira with the honorary “George Tiller” award which “recognizes a physician early in their career who provides abortions while demonstrating leadership and courage, even in the face of adversity.”
“It’s not courageous to let your patient’s heart stop and then wait nine more minutes before calling 911,” says Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue. “And it’s not leadership to still be sending women with uncontrollable bleeding to the emergency room ten years later. All Perriera should have ever been awarded was a revocation of her medical license.”
The Aftermath
There is no way of knowing just how many women Perreira has sent to the emergency room or, even worse, the morgue. Operation Rescue has launched a full investigation into this new case and will be following up with the appropriate authorities.
“We are deeply concerned about what happened at Cherry Hill Women’s Center,” adds Sarah Neely, Chief Operating Officer of Operation Rescue. “When a patient is rushed to the hospital due to a hemorrhage, it raises serious questions about the facility’s emergency preparedness and overall safety protocols. Women deserve better than secrecy and redacted recordings. Women deserve full transparency and accountability — especially when the abortionist in question has already killed one patient through complete incompetence and carelessness. How many other injuries or deaths have gone unreported? How many women remain silent out of fear?”
At this time, local emergency services and Cherry Hill Women’s Center have not commented on the specifics of the April 4th incident. Additional details may emerge pending further review and possible state oversight.
