Additional Information

More Appointment Information

We’re unable to provide childcare at our health center. For safety reasons children need to be accompanied by an adult when they’re in the waiting room. Only infants can accompany you to the exam room. Please bring a friend or family member to be with your children if you don’t have childcare at home.

You can fill your birth control prescriptions at our health center instead of the pharmacy. Must give 48-hour advance notice for prescription refills.

Specially trained staff are available for people with developmental disabilities.

You can come to us for services that don’t require a medical exam. For example, birth control education and supplies; emergency contraception (AKA the morning after pill); pregnancy testing and counseling; STD testing, and testing and treatments for urinary tract infections.

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment to check in and complete paperwork.

Planned Parenthood health centers are operated by regional Planned Parenthood affiliate organizations.
