Have your heard? Primary care is available at Planned Parenthood of Delaware!
Thinking of choosing or switching your primary care physician? Did you know Planned Parenthood has physicians at each of our sites who could serve that purpose for you?
Why choose us for your Primary Health Care needs?
Routine visits with a health care provider are an important part of taking care of your health – giving you important information about your personal health, help prevent illnesses, and provide treatments for problems you may have.
Unfortunately, some of the public tends to have preconceived notions about Planned Parenthood. But we are pleased to bring Primary Care services to our health centers to complement the quality reproductive and sexual health care we already provide.
