On January 13th Planned Parenthood hosted an open house for their new facility on Cincinnati’s west side. The new Mary M. Yeiser Center is a significant upgrade from the area’s former location, offering its patients more space and ease of access.

“In this challenging economic environment, more and more people are seeking affordable health care,” says Becki Brenner, CEO of Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio Region (PPSWO). “We provide vital services to under and uninsured women, and our patient base is growing quickly. We’re very proud to serve the community from within this brand new facility.”

In 1993, Charles F. Yeiser, the husband of the late Mary M. Yeiser, graciously donated to fund an improved clinic on Cincinnati’s west side and continues to support PPSWO’s efforts.  Mr. Yeiser, along with more than 50 other donors, gave generously to make the new health center possible. 

“Without our services in this community, many families would not receive the health care they deserve,” states Angela Fugate, Director of Clinic Business Operations.

State Senator Eric Kearney, a former Planned Parenthood Board Member, attended the event, as did numerous other local supporters.

The Mary M. Yeiser Center, located at 2016 Ferguson Road, is just three miles from Planned Parenthood’s former location. Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio is in its 80th year of service in the Cincinnati region, with 40 years in the Western Hills community.
