Leer en español | Servicios de Planeamiento Familiar
We assist individuals in making informed choices regarding their sexual and reproductive health. All services are confidential.

Services

Annual exams and education are provided. Birth control methods can be supplied either via prescription or onsite depending on insurance status.

The Family Planning Clinic can only provide services related to your reproductive health and cannot be used in place of a Primary Care Provider.

Annual exams will be provided for all patients.

Screening for sexually transmitted infections will be done for all patients when needed.

PAP testing will be done at annual exam visits for all female patients over the age of 21 years according to ACOG guidelines. Referrals for colposcopy will be completed if further testing is recommended.

Postpartum exams are available to female patients 4-6 weeks after delivery.

  • Free condoms can be picked up from the front desk or the drive-thru window Monday - Friday from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. You do not have to be a Public Health patient to request free condoms.

Eligibility

  • Appointments are available for any sexually active female or male patient who desires a method of birth control.
