"People don't know where to go," Doris Dixon, who oversees patient access at the clinic, said in an emotional interview Friday with Rachel Scott for"Good Morning America."

During her checkup, she found out she was five-and-a-half weeks pregnant -- still eligible for a legal abortion.

"To hear her beg for someone to help her was hard, she was begging," Dixon said."For me, I was trying very hard not to cry but the tears were coming down, they were there."Doris Dixon of Planned Parenthood is interviewed by Good Morning America in Houston, Sept. 3, 2021.
