carafem Health Expands Southern Presence, Opening Doors in Augusta
Tuesday, April 4th, 2017
Since establishing a strong Southern presence in Atlanta, carafem, an early abortion care and reproductive health provider, is proud to open its doors in Augusta, GA. This expansion marks carafem’s third location since their launch in Washington, DC in 2015.
“We’re pleased to announce that we’ve begun serving women in Augusta to meet the reproductive health care needs of the community,” says Melissa Grant, VP of health services for carafem. “About 150 miles southeast of Atlanta, our Augusta location will be easier to access for women traveling from places like southern Georgia, northern parts of Florida, and the Carolinas.”
The Augusta clinic provides early abortion care up to 10 weeks with the abortion pill, STI testing, and offers a selection of birth control options — such as Depo Provera shots, birth control pills as well as emergency contraception.
carafem is known for its modern services, edgy advertising, and unapologetic tone about abortion care. With a focus on providing a positive client-centered experience – carafem’s facilities ease the process for a woman to return to her normal life post abortion care, through:
-
Timely appointments, so clients can receive care as soon as possible
-
Appointments for the abortion pill that take less than an hour
-
A warm, non-judgmental approach to the client experience
“We greatly appreciate the collaboration and encouraging words from supporters and clients, and we look forward to continuing to expand access to safe reproductive health care options for those in the South,” adds Grant.
