The sidewalk counselors helped her obtain emergency medical care.<\/p>\n<p>After this incident, Reprotection filed several complaints with the Florida government, including with the state health department\u2019s Division of Medical Quality Assurance and Division of Health Quality Assurance, alleging that Azima was a grave threat to the health and safety of Florida women. The group also filed complaints with the state\u2019s elected officials and the governor\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>The Florida health department ended up opening its own investigation, shortly after which Azima shut down his abortion clinic.<\/p>\n<p>During its yearlong investigation, Reprotection found that Azima has an extensive history of medical negligence, including a previous medical license suspension. The group also found that the abortionist was running his clinic without an abortion facility license, saying abortions constituted less than 51% of his work, a claim that was contested by pro-life advocates who observed his clinic.<\/p>\n<p>The investigation also found that Azima himself had been described as \u201cout of it\u201d and exhibited mental and physical impairments including uncontrollably shaking hands due to his advanced age. Other concerns included his failure to obtain patients\u2019 medical histories and monitor key health factors before performing surgical abortions, performance of incomplete abortion surgeries, implanting of birth control devices in pregnant women resulting in the women having emergency abortions, and his failure to comply with required post-surgical practices to ensure the abortion was complete and the patient was emotionally and physically well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are so glad that Ali Azima has retired and stopped harming women and killing children in Florida,\u201d said Missy Stone, senior analyst at Reprotection. \u201cWith one more abortion business shut down, lives will be saved and women\u2019s health will no longer be endangered. Reprotection will continue to investigate dangerous doctors and abortion businesses nationwide and hold them accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Thomas More Society, a conservative law firm, assisted the watchdog group in bringing complaints against Azima.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis highlights a question that must be answered: Why do so many governmental units avoid their duties to regulate abortion facilities?\u201d asked Matt Heffron, Thomas More Society senior counsel. \u201cIf Azima had been in any other business, you can be assured there would have been swift action to protect the public. The fact that he was still in business after so many complaints and verified violations is astounding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
