Very nice on the phone.

I would recommend Early Options 9/1/2009

All of the employees at Early Options are very helpful and make you feel comfortable. The staff is very knowledgeable and the facility is fantastic. Pros: Wonderful Staff more

Shame on you! 8/25/2009

It is so sad that all these comments are written by the same person or the same staff of Early Option. It is impossible that no one has a bad comment about it. And the worse thing is that my wife and I really need an abortion. Shame on YOU! more

question 8/25/2009

what are the prices for these routines like the exact numbers? nobody has posted any prices im sure ppl would like to know more

can't say enough about this amazing safe haven 8/20/2009

when faced with the most difficult decision of my life the thought of having to go to an assembly line clinic made me even more horrified. thank god for early options....the people, doctors and staff, along with the amazingly calming environment are just amazing and made me most comfortable during one of the most difficult times in my life. please consider early options, you will be more than satisfied. you owe it to your body, mind and spirit!!! Pros: Just amazing more

Read me if you are suspicious 8/18/2009

Early Option really deserves five-stars. I'm only giving it four because this way, people will be more likely to read this. Read my post if you, like I was earlier, were having doubts because of the ""all-too-perfect"" ratings. The person who gave it one-star really had her points. It seems all too suspicious that this place seems to only have five-stars. But my boyfriend told me, ""If this place is really didn't deserve all the perfect scores, why isn't there any reviews with actual negative things to say?"" I don't think they can delete the negative reviews. So if Early Option is fraudulent, at least one person would write about it and warn others, especially since people with negative opinions tend to be more vocal. Also, if you Wikipedia Rating Site, it shows that an average rating of over 100 reviews is usually quite accurate. Though it's true the reviews might be written by employees, let me tell you why I don't think so. Today, although I was doubtful, I decided to give Early Options a try. From the receptionist, to the nurse, to the doctor, everyone was incredibly kind, caring and understanding. They seem to know exactly what was going on with me physically and emotionally. Everyone made sure that I had all my questions answered and informed me what will happen next at every step. Although it seems too good to be true, I gave ""Aspiration"" a try. I never had a pap smear test, and never had an abortion before, so choosing this ""semi-surgical"" process was quite a hard decision for me. For a person who hates needles, I was quite scared. Turns out that all my worries were not needed. No need to say more, like all the other reviews mentioned, the procedure itself was practically painless. With a slightly uncomfortable five minutes, it was done before I knew it. The heating pad really helped with the cramping, and I had a lollipop in my mouth the whole time. The nurse even brought me tea afterward. No one rushed me to get out of the room after the procedure, and I could stay in it with my boyfriend only for as long as I need to feel ok enough to leave. I took me about 2 minutes to ""recover"" and proceed to leave for home. There was no injections, no pain, nothing scary, everything expected and understood. I never thought abortion could be so easy. Oh, and they really respect your privacy. They have so many measures to make sure that your visit was confidential and info about this visit won't leak. Pros: Fast & painless procedure, incredibly caring staff Cons: Too many phone numbers, hard to find more

( Read My Comments) Wonderful experience! 8/5/2009

I would like to take the time to share my experience with using these wonderful doctors at this office.\r \r My procedure was completed on August 4th, 2009 around 6:00 pm . I am writing this testimony August 5th, 2009. \r \r Let me start by saying, about 8 weeks ago, I found out I was pregnant. I panicked. So many feelings went through my mind. No one in the world can describe how it feels to find yourself pregnant. \r \r I have had morning sickness, and I was throwing up morning, noon and night due to the pregnancy, worry, stress, and I had no idea how to deal with anything like this happening in my life. \r \r Many people can judge you, but they have no idea how many emotions you experience. I cried for weeks praying for God to show me what I should do.\r \r I live in a very small place where this type of procedure available at Early Options would never be available for me.\r \r I thank God for allowing me to find this place. I checked out the Planned Parenthoods in my area. I was scared to death about how they treated the women who are going through this very tough time in their lives. \r \r The “Clinics” I called were so uncaring. They treated me like I was just another number and were trying to schedule me in to give me gas and scrap my uterus (D&C). The “Clinics” did not even care to talk to me \r like I was a person. \r \r They told me that I would not see the doctor until the surgical procedure. This made me very uncomfortable. So, I set out on my search to find a better place.\r \r I went looking on the internet and typed in “early options for an abortion procedure”. To my surprise, there was an actual place called Early Options. It showed me Early Options in NYC. I read every testimony that people have posted. The best place I would recommend is Early Options.\r \r I wish I could share my experience with every woman in the world to let her know that there is an easy way.\r \r Once you have experienced the kindness and peace of mind that only the women can provide you at Early Options, you will want to share your experience, too. \r \r I know my testimony is long, but I have to share my details knowing that other women are going through what I had to go through. \r \r I actually had to reschedule 3 times before I got to NYC to get the procedure because my schedule kept changing. They completely understood and worked with me any way they could. They were very kind. \r \r I know that I called the office and spoke to every person there before finally making an appointment. They spent so much time with me over the phone even before I made an appointment. \r \r I flew 3 hours, and I had to drive another hour to get to their office. I had to go a long distance to get to them. It was well worth it in every way.\r \r Also, please do not be worried that they do not give out the address until you schedule your appointment. This is protecting our privacy. It is actually a positive they do not give out the exact address until your appointment. \r Before going to this doctor’s office, I read all the testimonies on the website many times over and over.\r \r These women and doctors are absolutely wonderful. They are angels in my book. They made me feel so special. They focused all of their attention on me. \r \r I just cannot describe in words how kind and caring the doctor\r and her assistant were to me.\r \r If you are a woman who is pregnant, and you want to end your pregnancy, this is the easiest and safest procedure I have ever found. \r \r If you have the ability to go to this office, it will be the best decision you will ever make. I never thought an abortion could be over so easy and painless. This is coming from a person who is scared of pain, needles, doctors, etc. \r \r I always think the worst and usually worry myself sick. I was so shocked at how easy the abortion was; I wanted to cry tears of joy. \r Pros: Easy Procedure, Kind and Caring Doctors. Cons: Nothing Bad at all. more

Difficult time in my life made easy 7/16/2009

It was a very quick and easy procedure. The all-women staff were very understanding, cheerful, smiling, and jokative in a potite manner. Everything was explained to me clearly, I had few question and they made it easy. I had the aspiration procedure and it was just like getting a PAP smear. Slight discomfort but overall tolerable. Very pleased to had choosen to go to Early Options. Pros: Friendly environment, patient, and cleaniness more

The method to Choose 7/11/2009

Ladies making this choice is not easy, but if it comes to terminate pregnancy this is the method to trust. I asked my gyno for recommendations and unfortunately did not give me this place's information. I was very persistent to find a better method to terminate for future health and my well being. I was sooo glad to listen to my intituition, I had the surgical done yesterday. Its amazing how the feeling of peace and body felt back to normal. Its a challenging decision to make in one's life, but ladies this method makes one feel like one is treated with care and safety for our uterus. I was able to eat normal again after it was done. Trust it Ladies. Pros: The healthiest Method Available more

En menos de 5 min tu vida vuelve a la normalidad 7/10/2009

Es la primera vez que atravieso la experiencia de quedar embarazada. No lo habia planeado. Early Options aparecio via internet ofreciendo un metodo no sirurgico y eso me alento. Tienen el mejor equipo de trabajo: amigable y muy confidente. El proceso realmente no duele y dura solo 5 minutos. more

VERY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE 7/3/2009

The all female staff and atmosphere are very comforting. There was only one other person in the waiting room before my procedure, so it is very private, and you get individual attention (as opposed to the 'herd mentality"" that seems to exist at other clinics. The procedure feels like a pap smear, is done in minutes, and with little to no side effects. They took the time to answer all my questions, and provided me with future options to prevent future pregnancies. I was very nervous coming in, and felt very confident and reassured upon leaving. I would strongly recommend Early Options for anyone considering an abortion. Pros: COMFORTABLE, QUICK, REASONABLY PRICED more

Best Experience Possible 7/2/2009

The staff was brilliant and compassionate. The procedure took less than 5 minutes, and the doctor and nurse keep you informed the entire time. Your comfort is top priority and each person is treated as an individual with no judgment what so ever. I can't imagine going anywhere else for such a delicate matter. Pros: staff, environment, professionalism, and confidentiality Cons: not one thing more

Amazing, compassionate staff 6/30/2009

This is the first time I have ever posted an online review about ANYTHING....but reading all of these posts was an enormous comfort to me when I made the decision to go to early options, so I feel compelled to add my own. I have never in my life encountered a more compassionate nurse or doctor. Even though I had spent literally hours reading through the website over and over before my appointment, it was comforting to have everything explained to me again in person...and they were more than happy to do this. My boyfriend was with me the entire time, and they gave us opportunities to ask questions every step of the way. No one ever seemed impatient with us or anxious to move on to the actual procedure....it was as though they were happy to wait until we were absolutely ready. I chose to have the aspiration procedure--for me, the cramps were definitely painful (they explained that it is different for everyone though) but only lasted for a minute or two. The entire thing took five minutes, and the cramps stopped almost immediately when it was done. You see nothing...my boyfriend held my hand the whole time and the nurse talked to (and completely distracted) both of us throughout the procedure as well. After it was over, I was given a heating pad, water and tea and told to stay in the room laying down for as long as I liked....and they meant it. No rushing us out at all! I just can't say enough about how nice everyone in this office was...even when I called to make an appointment, the person I spoke to on the phone spent a good 15 minutes answering my questions and couldn't have put me at ease more (and i mean at one point, I was actually crying on the phone to her). These women are beyond understanding....of course, I'm happy that my boyfriend was able to be there, but honestly, looking back, I would have actually felt just fine had I been there alone--they are that wonderful. This is without a doubt the place to go.... Pros: The amazing staff and quiet, clean facility more

A Great Group of Ladies 6/27/2009

I don't understand how anyone can write a bad review about this office, especially if you've never been here. I can honestly say that when I went to this office a few weeks ago I was very happy with the treatment I received. I didn't feel judged, I only felt understood. more

AMAZING!!! 6/25/2009

This place is amazing. I am writing the review minutes after the procedure. I am a chicken for any medical procedure and I was calm and relaxed. The doctor is fabulous. All I felt was slight cramps, the procedure took minutes. The place is clean and they are very thorough - everything is explained in detail before the procedure. They are caring and very warm. I wish I had known about this place in the past. Early Options should be your only option. Thanks to the staff for making this experience a pleasant one (as crazy as that may sound). You guys ROCK!!! Pros: Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, privacy more

An amazing option 6/23/2009

I was so pleased with Early Options. The staff was very comforting, informative and helpful. Although I considered the aspiration, I ended up doing the RU486 option which was a bit painful due to cramping but all in all much easier than a traditional surgical abortion (which they do not perform at this facility). They also let your boyfriend stay in the room, during the whole process which was a huge comfort to me. Early Options made a very difficult process much easier. I recommend this to any woman who finds herself with an unwanted pregnancy. Pros: very comforting staff, relatively quick process Cons: tough decision more

HIGHLY suspicious. be careful ladies!!!! 6/20/2009

i am not familiar w this establishment so if i am wrong, i truly apologize. but this business and its ratings seem super sketchy to me and i hope anyone who wants info about birth control or possibly terminating their pregnancy does A LOT of research before walking into a clinic that is not WELL KNOWN for truly being pro-CHOICE like planned parenthood\r \r why am i skeptical?\r -none of the reviewers have customized pictures\r -it seems to have highly unlikely 100% perfect ratings\r -none of the reviewers listed cons\r -it has several highly unlikely reviews in one day\r -this is the ONLY review each of the users posted\r -many of the reviewers DESCRIBE their abortion procedure which is... odd for many reasons\r -one of the reviews' subjects was ""dont go to planned parenthood"" which is a bit ridiculous\r \r so.. just be careful ladies!! there are a lot of crazies out there. please ask your doctor, or the city of nyc, or a planned parenthood for referrals to doctors &clinics that can be TRUSTED more

this is the only place to go! 6/20/2009

This place and the women who work here are so very comforting. Before I came here, I had had a very bad clinic experience and walked out before treatment because it was so horrific. \r I am so thankful that I found Early Options. The procedure was quick, with some cramping, and the assistant held my hand the entire time. Afterwards, I felt a little dizzy but I was offered juice and given a heating pad and I felt better within minutes. Thank you so much Early Options! You helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life and made me feel safe and comfortable. Pros: Everything more

No one should go to Planned Parenthood 6/19/2009

Well 1st off im floridaboys girlfriend(2post below and 2 yr relationship) we went there about a week ago on a saturday our usual date night but anyway,My mom was originally supposed to be in the room with mebut parking wasterrible soshe couldnt get upstairs in timeso he stayed in the room with me and held my hand the whole way through this is our 2nd abortion the 1st time i went to my private practice gyn in nj and it was surgical horrible traumatizing experience i was 16 going on 17 at the time and it was 2 days before my birthday need less to say my birthday was ok but i really didnt get over it until about the middle of last year now im 18 and here we are again so this time i didnt want to think i just wanted to do it and act like it never happened (because after 7 or 8 years of hell im finally just 2months away from college and im just to close) so of course the first one to know was my mom she was surprised but supportive of my decision so we proceeded to calling my gyn she is in big time demand which normally is ok but at the time we couldnt afford it so then next step was to call planned parenthood bad idea my mom was scared and so was i we called almost every one in nyc area and they all said you will be awake and u will feel it (in terms of surgical) and the pill was really not an option i've heard to many horror stories so i took upon myself to figuere it out on my own i typed in private practice abortion into google and the 1st thing on the list was early options i read it then called for a next day appt for the aspiration so we came up with the money and she drove me and bf down there (mind you the day b4 the appt was the 1st time i cried about the whole thing)so we walked in expecting a million people sitting ther for the same thing i was instead it was just me and him and the sound of a waterfall so the nurse gave me papers etc she was possibly the nicest nurse i've ever met then we went into the doctors office discussed everything for a half hour or so then i made the decision to have him in the room since mommys car was double parked and i didnt want her to get a ticket so the nurse talked to me the whole time about college and interior design(which is my major)which kept my mind kinda off what was going on its not that it was painful just uncomfortable but almost like a long papsmear of course i have the worst threshold for pain or discomfort in places that i cant see so having someone speak to me was great and he sat right next to me i was breaking his hand just because i was so nervous and scared it felt like the longest 5mins ever but when it was done i was kinda surprised and yet i still wanted to act like nothing happened(i rember the whole procedure i just kept thinking its an ultrasound) come the evening i wanted to continue lieing to myself but by then it started settling in of course hanging at the bar and playing pool helped but by the next day i just felt crappy but i just didnt know what to think at that point nor at this point a week later a mix of regret more so remorse and alot of what if and just feeling really senstive its getting a little better everyday and somedays are just not that much better its alot of up and down but im trying to be patient and nice to myself one day at a time and the support and understanding from my mommy and my boyfriend is a major help but in terms of early options anyone who needs todo this really shouldnt go anywhere else the procedure is something i dont believe is offered anywhere else and it makes a big difference and its nowhere near as traumatizing as surgical. (of course his review was much shorter) im sorry ive rambled on a bit what can i say its a senstive subject for me and for most women Pros: Excellent staff,my boyfriend or mom can be in there with me Cons: depressed about the whole thing,but nothing to do w/them more

truly deserves a 5-star rating 6/18/2009

when i was researching this place, i was skeptical about the all 5-star ratings. i thought those reviews must have been written by their interns or something. but since this was the only affordable place that was willing to squeeze me in (i found out that i was pregnant 3 days before i left to a country where abortion is illegal), i decided to go there. Pros: compassionate & skilled staff, quick & safe procedure Cons: wish i never had to have an abortion in the first place more

not what i expected 6/13/2009

well i thought that it was gonna be one of those walkin clinics but i was wrong the place was beautiful, quite.the staff was very nice to us it was very quick and it seemed painless for my girlfriend. Pros: very nice staff easy atmasphere very good more
