Dr. Thomas Hilgers and 25 Years of Love and Life at the Pope Paul VI Institute - Living Faith - Home & Family - News
WASHINGTON, DC (American Life League) - "Suffering is part of saying 'yes' to the Lord," Sue Hilgers said. "We were ignored and ostracized by our community, other doctors and even priests. But our work has been as much of a gift to us as we have hoped it would be to others." She was reflecting on the work of her husband, Thomas W. Hilgers, M.D., the medical visionary who founded and directs the Pope Paul VI Institute for the Study of Human Reproduction in Omaha, Nebraska. Its life-affirming and God-honoring approach to women's health has redefined the practice of obstetrics and gynecology.
