Appointment Information

Birth control refill pick ups are available any time we are open.

For refills, please call ahead at 877-686-5772 option 2 or request a refill online to avoid a wait at the health center.

Planned Parenthood is proud to offer same day prescription refills. If you have an existing prescription with us, you can request to refill your birth control online before 9:00am, and your prescription will be available for pick up after 3pm on the SAME DAY. Please call ahead to verify pick-up hours.

Please note that if you are using health insurance to cover the cost of your prescription, you can only receive one refill at a time.

At this health center you can come in for appointments that do not require a medical exam. For example, birth control consultation and supplies; emergency contraception (morning after pill); pregnancy testing; STD testing; testing and treatment for urinary tract infections.

We do not provide childcare services. We request that you please make childcare arrangements.

Children under the age of 12 are not allowed to wait unsupervised in the waiting area.

Please arrive 10 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment to check in and complete paperwork.
