Above all, the South Valley Women's Health Care team aims to provide all women with a safe and secure environment where they can feel comfortable discussing any concerns they may have about their sexual health.

Are family planning appointments confidential?

The mission of the obstetricians, gynecologists, and staff of South Valley Women’s Health Care is to provide the safest, most affordable, and most effective contraception and family planning services possible. They want to present patients with as many options as possible to enable and empower them to make informed choices about their own sexual health.

The team’s client-focused approach gives us them the opportunity to serve patients from all walks of life, including adolescents, LGBTQ persons, racial and ethnic minorities, clients with limited English proficiency, and persons with disabilities.

At South Valley Women's Health Care, the team follows established doctor-patient confidentiality guidelines to provide patients with the assurance they need to live a healthy life both physically and psychologically.

Do you recommend family planning if I’m already pregnant?

The team always recommends that patients contact their OBGYN or doctor when they become pregnant (or wish to become pregnant). 

The chances of a successful pregnancy increase dramatically with proper testing services and support, not to mention reducing the risk of the child or the mother developing complications during and after delivery.
