Planned Parenthood

I went in this morning as a walk-​in at 8am, was greeted with such wonderful customer service. I was called back right away. Address all of my concerns, educated me on women’s health. The PA and Medical Assistant went above and beyond to truly help me, educate me, make me feel comfortable, while radiating in compassion. Amazing organization keeping women healthy everyday! Thank you Planned Parenthood Bakersfield! Special shout out to Natasha who referred me and assisted with health education.

I love Planned Parenthood. Were it not for them, I’d never be able to maintain my lady health. I’m serious. I have no insurance so being able to get my lovely lady lumps and my «cave of forgotten dreams» checked regularly is such a relief.
I think this Planned Parenthood is the prettiest one I’ve been to. The place is HUGE compared to LA area ones and very clean.
I didn’t have to wait 5 – 6 hours. I was seen about 45 mins after appointment time to get my Mirena IUD removed.
The nurse was extremely professional and quick. The doctor lady was SO sweet. I felt so bad for her because I was all clammy and nervous as hell about the removal process — the IUD insertion was a fuckin’ nightmare. Not joking. Probably one of the most painful things I’ve ever experienced and I almost passed out doing it. She assured me it wouldn’t be a big deal but I was just freaking out the entire time.
She was right though. It wasn’t even a quarter as bad as the insertion and she did it quickly.
Was quite impressed with this Planned Parenthood, to be honest. Would prefer to come to this one all the time but I don’t live nearby.

They are okay I’ve been here a few times. The service you receive is expected because it is a health clinic. The wait time is ridiculous. Planned to be here for a while. They’re are never any open appointments. Sometimes the soonest they have is 2 months away. They also have wayyyy too many medical assistants that are still interning and not knowledgeable about a woman’s body. These young medical assistants sit behind the desk and laugh and tell jokes without handling the patients charts. I wouldn’t go here again.

Took my daughter to get started on birth control she had an excellent experience. My daughter said the medical assistant and doctor were very helpful and informative. We had an appointment on May 8^th we were in and out within an hour!

I’m unsure of why there’s so many complaints. If you’re going to complain about waiting for FREE services, then go to an actual doctor where you’ll pay. As far as derogatory references such as calling people ratchet, you yourself are the exact example of being less educated and sound quite stupid to be honest.
The staff is as attentive as they can be. I don’t know anyone who has had problems at this location let alone myself.

Theres an OB/​GYN shortage in Bakersfield so I came here I didn’t know what to expect but the DR made me feel comfortable wait time just as any other office I like this place for specific womens needs they do have a long questioner about your history they also have programs that can help cover costs my experience was good Im going back again for my annual exam

Do not come here!!! They’re extremely discriminatory. The receptionist treated us so rudely & said she didn’t have a physician for us & that we really go elsewhere. When pressed about the matter she just kept saying in a snooty voice «we don’t have anyone for you & if you wait you’re gonna wait a really long time. Like hours.» I’ve never been so offended in my life. Avoid this place at all costs.

I had a great experience here. The staff were extremely helpful and kind. They were informative and quick. My appointment was in the morning and i think that makes a Huge impact on your wait time.

Fast, Friendly service!
5 Stars!

This place is horrible. My wife has been to Planned Parenthoods in other places and have never had the problems that she has with this location.
You can call for an appointment and be told there aren’t any available for a month. That is if they actually answer the phone.
Once you are at your appointment you better plan to wait at least 2 hrs or more before you actually get in to see the doctor.
If you’re coming in just to pick up your prescription, plan to wait an hour or more as well! Everywhere else my wife has ever been they don’t make you wait and just give you the pills upon arrival.
Also the staff is rude and unprofessional.
