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
