We are Long Island's longest-standing abortion provider, with over 35 years of experience.
Deciding whether or not to terminate a pregnancy is not easy. There are lots of reasons that women decide to have abortions, but this can be a difficult decision-- one of the crucial choices in a woman’s reproductive years. The decision to have an abortion will impact a woman for the rest of her life. Our trained, professional staff is dedicated to helping women at this crossroads to make the right decision for themselves.
We are here to listen. We are here to answer the tough, tear-filled questions about this decision. We are here to guide patients through this highly emotional process before, during and after the procedure. We are here to make a difficult process easier. We are a private medical facility that will help you, and we are here to care.
After deciding to receive an abortion, it’s important to make an informed decision about the method of the abortion. The two methods for an early pregnancy termination are surgical and medical abortions.
The surgical or suction procedure is performed under light anesthesia (putting patients to sleep) or local anesthesia (numbing the body part). The uterine cervix is carefully dilated to insert a sterile suction tube, used to empty the uterus. This procedure takes about five minutes, and is 100% effective.
As an alternative to the surgical abortion, patients can also request the abortion pill. The first medication is administered to the patient in the office, and stops the growth of the pregnancy. The second medication is taken at home during the next day to empty the uterus. The medical abortion does not cause infertility. If you are uncertain which method is best for you, speak to a doctor. In New York, the time limit on medical abortions is twelve weeks after the last menstrual period.
We understand that over-the-counter tests are expensive, so we offer free pregnancy urine testing at our office. Should any further testing be needed, we can provide that at a minimal cost or it can be covered by most insurance plans.
