Early Options™ is at the forefront of making early abortion a positive mainstream medical experience. The most simple and natural methods are offered in a private, personal environment. There are only women doctors and staff. The patient meets the doctor and they make a choice together about which method is best for her. The patient is seen by one staff person the entire time to maximize support. All care is conducted in a private examination room. Companions are welcome.
Why isn’t all early abortion care offered this way? The abortion clinic model was developed in the 1970’s, when abortion became legal. Because of its controversy, abortion was established in segregated clinic settings, separate from mainstream medical care. While clinics have been essential, or even heroic, in offering these services, there are significant limitations to the model of care. Some high volume clinics organize their medical services in an “assembly line” style, where they schedule large numbers of women to come in at the same time for an appointment. In this “clinic” environment, we believe women are not getting the best medical care or the emotional support they need while ending a pregnancy.
