Planned Parenthood

I’ve never had any issues with this location. I’m actually really happy it’s here. I’ve used them for birth control and with the shot i only had to go once every 3 months. I started going in November of 2013 at 18 years old. However I’m sure you can actually go even younger than that. The find your privacy very important. If they need to call you for any reason, they won’t even say «planned parenthood «unless given your permission first.
My first time going they asked a lot of personal questions for your benefit but they don’t judge you .
Calling to make an appt was always quick and easy and when waiting to be seen, I never had to wait more than 20 minutes. Then after that I’m in and out. They give me a card with a date of when to come next .
The only reason I didn’t go back this month is because I don’t have insurance right now due to my mothers recent resignation of her Job. When given prices without using insurance, they said anywhere from $ 50 – 180. Which is pretty pricey to me.
Overall, I’m very thankful for them. I’m sure a lot of other people are too, especially with it being on a college campus.

I come here because I used to not have health insurance and it was the best option price wise. Now that I have insurance I am going to start going somewhere else. Right now, I am sitting in their waiting room with 5 other women and I have been waiting an hour and a half to see the doctor to renew a prescription. That’s all I need, a five minute conversation and a slip of paper. This is turning into a waste of an afternoon. This is not an event that should take up my whole day like it is.
So in my opinion if you have insurance, go somewhere else. Then maybe you’ll wait a reasonable amount of time and get the same services. You’ll also make it quicker for individuals without insurance if you’re not there taking up the PlannedParenthood physician’s time.

I’ve gone to this Planned Parenthood for my GYN needs since 2004. I appreciate their mission and services. The staff, nurse practitioners, and doctors are friendly, helpful, efficient, and actually listen.
Why am I considering not going back? The last few years, every time I go, no matter what day of the week or time of day, I have waited almost 2 hours for an appointment. It’s completely absurd. I recently called to make my yearly appointment and asked what time/​day are they least busy. I was told any time I come I can expect at least an hour wait (an hour in doctor speak is 1.5 hours in real time). Another issue is, you can only schedule an appointment ONE week in advance, meaning, you have to play roulette on what day/​time you get because you don’t get the advantage of advance scheduling. Honestly, their services are not cheap enough for me to wait that long. Since 2004, I went one time to a network GYN and paid the same procedural fee as I did at Planned Parenthood.
I’ve never received free or discounted services and I am not sure who qualifies for those, but regardless, I went back to Planned Parenthood to keep supporting them, but now, I’m not sure if the hassle/​wait is worth it.

Convenient location, friendly staff. They offer a wide range of important medical services for families who could not afford them otherwise. My wife and I have used this location for many years and we are grateful it’s there. Don’t hesitate to visit! Keep in mind they are closed on Friday.
