Wichita, KS — On September 29, pro-life citizens reported an ambulance at the Trust Women late-term abortion clinic located at 5107 E Kellogg Drive in Wichita, Kansas.
Back in 2024, this same facility was forced to close for two months amid a dramatic implosion, compliance issues, and a mass resignation from abortionists working at the clinic. Within months of reopening, two women were rushed to the hospital — one for a possible perforation and another for hemorrhage and “significant blood loss.”
Now, public records obtained by Operation Rescue confirm what concerned citizens reported just weeks ago: another woman has suffered serious complications.
In a 911 call from the Trust Women clinic, an abortion worker told dispatch a 30-year-old woman “started bleeding excessively” during an abortion procedure. According to the worker, interventions were not having any effect to stem the bleeding. “We need the EMS, urgent,” she says.
“For an abortion worker to admit in a 911 call that the situation is urgent is its own red flag,” says Sarah Neely, Operation Rescue COO. “In the majority of 911 calls we listen to, abortion workers do all they can to downplay the seriousness of an injury, or use ridiculous language — some even try to evade the dispatcher’s questions altogether. The answers this abortion worker gives are the kind that trigger our investigative team to start requesting autopsies.”
Later in the call, the abortion worker confirms again that the bleeding is “serious.”
The 911 Detail Report only reiterates Operation Rescue’s concern about this woman’s fate. The report shows a dispatch code of “21D02.” The “21” signifies a hemorrhage or laceration, while the “02” indicates the patient is unconscious. “D” or “Delta” is one of the highest priorities a call can be given. It signifies an imminent, life-threatening situation.
The 911 records also show the woman was heavily sedated. According to its website, Trust Women requires mandatory IV sedation for abortions starting at 15 weeks.
When dispatch asks if the woman is awake, Trust Women answers, “No, she’s sedated.” Moments later, the 911 dispatcher asks if she’s breathing. Trust Women reiterates the amount of sedation, answering, “Yes, she’s, uh, on two liters of oxygen, she’s had quite a bit of sedation.”
“With the heavy sedation, it’s certain this was a second or third trimester abortion,” says Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue, “performed on a woman who was put to sleep in what she probably thought was a safe medical clinic, only to wake up in a hospital, injured, maimed, possibly infertile — and that’s if she woke up at all.”
Neely adds, “Trust Women is a terrible name for a clinic women can certainly never trust. Was this woman told the risks of late-term abortion? Was she told about the women injured before her? And will Kansas state officials investigate a clinic that, after being forced to close once already, has injured at least three women since reopening?”
Kansas was once known as a pro-life state. However, a radically pro-abortion state Supreme Court coupled with failures to pass initiatives that would rebuild the groundwork for life-affirming protections have turned the Sunflower State into what OR calls an “abortion devastation.” Since 2019, the number of abortions across the state has increased 186% and the number of abortion clinics nearly doubled.
“At Operation Rescue we know when clinics close, babies are saved,” says Newman. “And so are mothers. And when clinics like this back-alley abortion dump are left open, we know babies die — and, sometimes, so do their mothers. The state of Kansas needs to investigate this facility immediately. Did this woman survive her injuries? And how many more will state officials allow to be injured?”
