Abuse is a national crisis in our country.
I have worked with my share of battered women, children and men, whether it come from verbal, physical, sexual or emotional abuse. 1 in 7 women seen for general medical care in office practices are there due to abuse. 1 in 3 women seeking care for any reason in a hospital emergency room has been battered. 1 in 4 women who attempt suicide do so because of abuse. 1 in 4 women who are pregnant, are battered yearly.
