Your concerns are important to us. The following are some of the
most frequently asked questions.

 

Safety

Abortion is one of the safest procedures performed in the United
States. Complications or long lasting problems are rare. The choice to become pegnant at a later time, will not be affected by this abortion.

 

Privacy

There is no information about your appointment that will be shared
with antone else without your permission. We will not ever reconfirm
an appointment over the phone, once it has been made. NO information will be mailed to you before the appointment.

 

Parental Consent

**There is no parental consent in Illinois. We will not tell your parents or talk to anyone without your permission. We respect your right to make choices about your body.

 

Picketers

All clinics have people who oppose the right to have an abortion.
These people try to stop you from having an abortion by picketing.
We have 2 or 3 older people who are out front, if you don't stop, they won't bother you.Turn into our drive and go past them. After that you will have no furthur contact. Our parking and entrance are in the back, and is completly private.

 

Hospital Privilege

Our physicians are licensed in Illinois and they have hospital
privileges. We also have a transfer agreement with a hospital here in town should it become necessary. We have a 24 hour emergency number and our doctors and nurses, will help you when needed.

 

Friends

You may have anyone you wish accompany you during your
conseling session. We will answer any questions or concerns they
may have about the abortion.

 

Pain

Will it hurt is a frequently asked question. We will give you some pills to take for cramps. If you are not driving we can give you 2 other medications that are injected into the vein in your arm. These medicines will make you drowsy and relaxed. A lot of women fall asleep for a brief time and usually can't remember the procedure. During this time your support nurse will be with you till you go to recovery.

Abortion is one of the safest procedures done today. We will make every effort to address any concerns and answer all questions you have.
