We have both male and female doctors on staff. Please let your phone counselor know if you wish to schedule with a female physician. They will be able to discuss availability with you.

Our Raleigh, Charlotte, and Atlanta locations offer Deluxe sedation package a heavy conscious sedation package for an additional charge. Please note that we do not put any patients to sleep at any clinic.

A D&E is the in-office procedure that APWHC offers.  D&E is the term used to explain the dilation and evacuation of the tissue through a suction device.

Unfortunately not. We ask that you seek immediate care from a hospital.

There is no contraception or birth control medication that is 100% effective.

After the abortion, your cervix will be dilated and easily prone to infection or injury if anything is inserted. Therefore, we recommend that you refrain from having sex, inserting anything vaginally (such as tampons), swimming, or bathing in a tub for at least 2 weeks after the procedure.

You are unable to use Monistat or other OTC insertions to treat the infection for three weeks after a procedure. We suggest calling your primary physician or OB-GYN to obtain a prescription for an oral treatment.

The pregnancy hormones (Hcg) can still be in your system for up to four weeks after your procedure, therefore causing you to yield a positive result. Because of this, it is important to return for your follow-up visit to complete your care.

Yes! However, we do ask that you avoid heavy or greasy foods.

We recommend that you wait at least 3 weeks, or until you have returned for your follow-up visit, before engaging in intercourse; this is to prevent infection as well as another pregnancy.
