(Newswire.net — April 4, 2016) San Bernardino, California — FPA Women’s Health, formerly Family Planning Associates Medical Group has long been a provider of family planning and abortion services. Since its establishment over 40 years ago, it has offered patients safe and convenient access to quality care. Just recently, FPA has announced that they are now offering general healthcare services for women at three of their locations – soon to be expanding to more locations.

General healthcare services are now offered at FPA’s facilities in Long Beach, Santa Monica, and Downtown Los Angeles. Urgent Care appointments are accepted to treat injuries or conditions that require immediate treatment but are not bad enough to require an ER visit such as illnesses, pains, and infections. They also offer preventive care services such as health exams, vaccinations and diagnosis of any health issues. They provide care services to women with chronic illnesses as well, especially those that require regular appointments. FPA takes PPO insurance, Medi-Cal and cash for their general healthcare services.

FPA Women’s Health (http://www.fpawomenshealth.com/) was founded in 1969 after abortion became legal in California. In many states, abortion was only legal when the continuance of pregnancy became life-threatening. California law, however, was liberal and so women from other states started coming to receive legal surgical abortions.

FPA’s main services are Women’s Health, Gynecology, Obstetrics and Family Planning. The services under Women’s Health and Gynecology include annual exams, cervical cancer screening through a Pap test, Colposcopy for abnormal Pap test results, LEEP (loop electrosurgical excision procedure) for further evaluating abnormal cervical cells, Rapid HIV Testing and STD Screening, Vaccines, Vaginal Infection Screening and Treatment, Vulvar Biopsy, Endometrial Biopsy and Treatment for Genital Warts.

Birth control, including hormonal contraceptives, IUDs and permanent sterilization, remains one of their primary focuses for all of their patients. They are now providing 13 months of birth control pills in just one visit. Other Family Planning services include the Abortion Pill/Medical Abortion/At Home Abortion and Surgical Abortion.

Their Obstetrics services include pregnancy testing, prenatal care to prevent potential health problems during pregnancy, ultrasound and options counseling, which provides information about the continuation of a pregnancy, termination or adoption.

FPA has very positive reviews on Yelp. One review says: “The moment I walked in the atmosphere of the place felt comfortable and professional. The staff seemed very warm, welcoming, and accommodating. One of the medical assistants, was very kind and informative. They provide a wide range of services for women’s health and I highly recommend this place!”  View more reviews at http://www.fpawomenshealth.com/yelp/.
