My private OB/GYN referred me here for a medically necessary abortion. It was a very difficult decision, however I am on medications for a severe autoimmune disorder and was told it is likely to have significant health effects on the fetus and stopping the medication was not an option. I wanted my private gynecologist to do the procedure, but she recommended I go see her colleague who works at garden state gynecology, since I am a complicated case and her colleagye that works here has done a lot more of these procedures.\r

There were a couple clinics closer to where I live, but due to my health issues, I wanted to go where my private gynecologist recommended. After talking to both my private gynecologist and the doctor at the clinic, it was decided that a surgical procedure with anesthesia was the best course of action.\r

This was my first time ever having both a procedure (other than dental surgery) and getting anesthesia. I think I was more afraid of the anesthesia, but the anesthesiologist was very nice and spoke with me for a whole to explain how the sedation works. That really help to put me at ease.\r

The gynecologist spent a lot of time with me and even conferenced called in my rheumatologist during my consult due to my complicated medical history. The office had a modern appearance to it and seemed new. The staff was very caring and professional. I was surprised by how quick the whole process was - from check-in to discharge, I was there only a little over two hours. And that included a longer than usualy consult with the gynecologist due to the need to setup a conference call with my other doctors.\r

I have already recommended this clinic to a friend of mine based on my positive experience here. I can easily recommend this facility to anyone requiring an abortion. They appeared to also offer routine gynecology services as well, however I love my private gyn so I cannot comment on using them for that purpose. I did really like the doctor here though and it may be a good option to those living in the area.
