Comprehensive Reproductive Health Care and Abortion Services
Patient-centered care where you are treated with respect and compassion is our primary focus. At Cedar River Clinics, we treat our patients with respect and empower them to make their own reproductive healthcare decisions about their bodies. We believe access to reproductive health information and services has the power to change lives. Our clinics provide safe and compassionate abortion care 10 weeks and up to 26 weeks, and we also offer a special fetal/maternal indications program.
Clinical Abortion Services and Expertise
A Preferred Women’s Health Center has provided trusted, safe, and affordable abortion services to women across the Southeastern United States for over 25 years. Our physicians and staff specialize in early abortion care, including the abortion pill. Indeed, A Preferred Women’s Health Center was one of the first abortion clinics in the United States to offer the abortion pill, and our staff consists of the most experienced abortion providers in the country. We offer confidential and secure health care services in clinic and online, ensuring every patient is treated with dignity and respect.
Wellness and LGBTQ+ Healthcare Services
Wellness services include physical exams, cancer screenings, HIV testing, STD/STI testing and treatment, infection checks, and free pregnancy tests. Our LGBTQ wellness services offer you quality health care in a safe and culturally responsive environment. Furthermore, the transgender and non-binary care we offer is based on the Informed Consent Model (ICATH). Birth Control allows you to enjoy sex without the worry of pregnancy and can be used to address other health issues. To support these needs, we offer free or low-cost birth control options.
Financial Assistance and Support Resources
We accept private medical insurance, Washington, and Alaska Medicaid, and we have a sliding fee scale and can assist with funding resources. Our clinics meet the rigorous standards for quality set by the Accreditation Association of Ambulatory Health Centers. We offer the following support services and resources:
- Free walk-in pregnancy test anytime during clinic hours
- Free language interpreters for phone calls and appointments
- Funding, transportation, and lodging assistance
- Bereavement support and resources
- Special program for genetic or other fetal abnormalities
Identifying Legitimate Care vs. Anti-Abortion Centers
When someone is pregnant or facing the possibility of pregnancy, they need unbiased information, real options, and quality healthcare for both birth and abortion. However, the Fake Clinics Suck campaign is a grassroots movement to defund anti-abortion centers (a.k.a. “crisis pregnancy centers”) in Georgia. These ideologically-driven establishments take public funding to wrongly pose as unbiased health services, then give inaccurate and sometimes harmful information to pregnant people who are seeking support.
Comparison of Healthcare Providers and Anti-Abortion Centers:
- Real Abortion Clinics: Follow medical standards for sexual and reproductive healthcare; provide safe, compassionate abortion care; offer unbiased information and real options.
- Anti-Abortion Centers: Provide virtually no medical care; often affiliated with national religious organizations; primary goal of diverting pregnant people from having an abortion; outnumber real abortion clinics by 3 to 1 nationwide.
Anti-abortion centers seek to intercept people seeking health care, often by placing physical locations very close to abortion clinics in order to confuse people looking for the clinic. In Georgia, that ratio is even higher — closer to 7 to 1. Almost 2/3 promoted false and/or biased medical claims about pregnancy, abortion, contraception, and reproductive health care providers. We aim to end the public funding of anti-abortion fake clinics, put a stop to their deceptive and manipulative practices, and call for investment in real resources we really need.
