Pregnancy is a health care issue and all people benefit from seeing a doctor as soon as they can. If you are pregnant we can confirm your pregnancy, obtain an ultrasound for an accurate gestational age, and begin prenatal care. If you are uninsured, this will allow you to begin the process to apply for Medicaid and obtain a doctor for follow up prenatal care and delivery. Although we cannot deliver babies, we will continue to provide prenatal care for you until you find a doctor who will take over your care if that is what you choose. If you do not plan to continue the pregnancy, this ultrasound can help you determine your timeline and options should you choose to terminate.

In the rare case that an abortion ends in complications, obtaining follow-up care in Alabama can be difficult. As such we promise that if you have had an abortion – however and wherever that may have occurred – we will see you to help ensure your complication is addressed. This option is available whether you had medication abortion or a procedural one and whether it was done by a doctor or self-managed. We will NOT ask medically unnecessary questions about your abortion, we will not turn you away because you had one, and we will do everything within our power to ensure that your decision stays private and confidential. You deserve health services without fear of arrest.

It is believed that as many as 20% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage, yet the ability to manage miscarriages is severely hampered in Alabama. If you believe your pregnancy is not progressing properly – either because of bleeding, lack of pregnancy symptoms, or for other reasons – we will provide you with an exam and determine if you are in the process of miscarrying. Should you meet the criteria for a non-viable pregnancy, we will provide medical intervention without requiring you to risk your health waiting for the miscarriage to finish on its own. We will NOT ask questions to see if you may have instigated or attempted to initiate this miscarriage.

We will provide you with necessary medical care regardless of your past or current medical history or any other concerns that may cause other medical providers to turn you away. We want to reduce the maternal mortality and morbidity rate in this state, and our number one goal is to ensure your health is protected to the greatest degree allowed under Alabama law.
