To discover whether future doctors in Galicia (Spain) are willing to express conscientious objection to voluntary termination of pregnancy (VTP). The medical students' level of knowledge regarding conscientious objection in health care was also examined, and their knowledge regarding the costs patients would incur if unable to exercise their right to VTP. ⋯ The problem of referring pregnant women to private healthcare, as a consequence of conscientious objection to VTP, is presented as critical in Spain, and in Galicia in particular. The future physicians showed that they strongly favoured not objecting to this healthcare practice, which will enable the problem to be resolved in the near future.
