The staff here are very sweet and accommodating! No judgememt at all. Every women should have the choice to choose whats best for them, and if you come here just ignore the annoying protesters.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED & TRAUMATIZED!!!!Unfortunately this was my second and last time going through with this decision. I also unfortunately was not in a good place financially to afford an abortion at the time, so it is true with everything in life. You get what you pay for. The finical help was pretty much the only positive thing about this place.They are extremely unprofessional.There is no privacy, aside from sitting in a room full of other woman and being openly asked questions in font of everyone else- i happen to walk out and seen a woman having a surgical abortion done with the door opened....Some of the staff are nice- but most are a little rough around the edges and do not really make you feel comfortable as i believe they should.They do not sit you down like other places to make sure you are making the decision yourself etcThey do not give you any information along the way- they just toss you around room to room and just hand you things or tell you to do things with very little information.It isn’t that clean of a place- literally seen blood spots on the floor in the room.They do not send you home with any antibiotics- which is scary.The way the building is set up- the protestors SURROUND you. Which doesn’t help some people.The worst part- the male doctor in the building is horrible. He won’t even acknowledge you when he walks in the room. He doesn’t tell you when he’s about to do anything or explain any process- he just does it. And he’s extremely rough.I was only checked on by one nice woman twice if i was ok- after she seen i was crying from being so traumatized by doctor.Last but not least- ZERO birth control options were discussed with me or offered. And i was giving practically no info on what to do or anything after i walked out those doors.If you can afford to go somewhere else - GOOOO!!!!!Other woman around me complaining about the similar issues.Abortions are already a tough decision at the end of the day for most woman; i urge you to go somewhere they strive to make you feel safe and comfortable during the entire process.

Very insensitive and not helpful with what comes after you leave the office. I had a partially difficult time understanding what is normal and what is not. Due to lack of information, I was left with many questions that had me concerned about my health. I spoke with multiple people and each person brushed off my concerns and one lady even laughed at me. I am disgusted with they way they treat their patients after they send them home. DO BETTER

Amazing staff. Customer service is wonderful across the board. Very friendly and polite. Definitely care about you and your well being. Non judgmental. Only cons are the stupid protesters who just so happened to be men when I went. Harmless as a fly but just as aggravating.

Its never a fun time to have to go through this, but all the staff were very accommodating, sweet, thoughtful, and made the whole experience as good as it can be, considering the circumstances. Thank you, ladies!

A wonderful patient-centered health facility that goes above and beyond to serve its patients in a hostile environment to reproductive rights: (there is a Crisis Pregnancy Center right down the street from this wonderful clinic called womens health center, which is NOT a health care facility; its anti-abortion and coercive towards women to push their ideological agenda and it actively tries this with this clinics patients--I put a picture of this FAKE CLINIC here so no one gets duped).So not only does A Womans Choice of Jacksonville offer top-quality health care, they also help patients navigate challenging abortion restrictions too. Cant say enough great things about this clinic.

There is not a better clinic out there! Scheduling the appointment was very, very easy. They answered all of my questions and concerns. Upon arriving, the office was very clean with a calming atmosphere. Thankfully, there were no protesters this day (not that it would have changed my decision). Every single person in this building showed kindness. Not once did I feel judged. The office manager’s positive attitude and gentle spirit was definitely something I will never forget. The lady doctor could not have made me feel any more comfortable and safe. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose this place 1000 times! Thank you ladies for being so amazing....and the extra cup of lemonade! This world needs more of this kindness!

Places like this that are honest about womens health and options are great assets to a community. Thank you for your medical expertise!

This clinic is an important part of this community. They understand the financial barriers that many women and families face when deciding to end a pregnancy and have funding assistants ready to help when you call to make your appointment.

I made an appointment 2 weeks a head of time,I don’t recall but I was told verbally 1x my appointment was at 7:30, verbally requested a reminder or an email with the time and location being that I’m not a local, was sent a text reminder with the time 8:35 and location , with no further call or update I went with that time, only to show up and be told I was late and would not be able to check in , I showed my reminder text and was rapidly responded with, “ oh yeah those are a hour wrong” How am I supposed to know that ? They told me I’m not and there is usually a call.....: I GOT NO CALL, with a very polite and uncaring matter was simply told “When I made my appointment I was told 7:30” I’m all for taking responsibility but if I was notified 8:35 I don’t think I should have been penalized, I have a job and can not take off work often I scheduled ahead like I was supposed, got a physical reminder of 8:35 and trust their process so I went with that time, BEING that this is a known issue to staff maybe you guys should fix or Inform future clients

They offer important health services for all women, like abortion care, miscarriage management, pregnancy testing, STI testing, and some birth control options, like emergency contraception. They are a woman-owned center and have funding assistants available to help overcome financial barriers.

I went in for an abortion when I was 16 years old the whole experience was very scary. I was depressed about even putting myself in that situation but I decided to go through with the procedure my overall visit in the office was very good and comforting and my parents had no knowledge whatsoever of what happened. But about a month later my dad told me a woman saw him and I out at the grocery store and that she remembered me from being in the office and decided to disclose the information to my dad about what happened and referred to me as Jane Doe and told my dad that she could not say my name I was completely heartbroken as I thought the experience was going to be completely confidential and my worst nightmare came true about my parent finding out when I even went to court to get a paper signed so that I could have the procedure done without my parents consentI would not recommend this office for such a vulnerable experience

I know I’m not an easy patient. Especially with how scared I tend to get. But the people who work at this office are literal angels on earth. They held my hand during the procedure- literally and did everything in their power to help me feel comfortable. They answered any and every question, and were there for me, made me feel like I mattered, they literally sat with me held my hand explained everything and took their time with me. These people honestly care so much about the people who go into their clinic you aren’t just another number to them. There are not enough words in the universe to thank them for everything. Don’t listen to those negative reviews, these people will FOREVER hold a very special place in my heart ❤️

Actual experience was the easiest thing ever compared to my fears. All the staff were so patient and compassionate and upbeat. Encouraging and uplifting atmosphere. They walk you through every step and never make you feel stupid. Worth the crowd and wait. Left happy without any regrets. $540-$590. Ask about financial assistance.

My daughter was here on Monday and Tuesday for her procedure.And I have to say she felt so comfortable with all the staff and the doctor himself..I want to give a BIG THANKS TO ALL THAT CARED FOR HER AND MADE HER FEEL SO COMFORTABLE DURING HER TWO DAY VISITS.. ALL she could do was speak so highly of the way they made her feel during her time there. .I want to thank Dr.Miller for talking to her and explaining everything to her making feel so much more comfortable with a man doctor because she had a fear at first from never being seen by a man. She spoke so highly of him so thank you so so much..And many thanks from myself to the ladies in front office for being so patient with me asking all kinds of question and giving me honest answers. This center was very nice and clean also..Thanks again to all the staff and doctor. .

Grateful for the people here who come in every day to help others in need. I had a good experience several years ago and never did post a review. In light of recent events it reminded me of that time and made me want to reach out and say thank you for the care you provided. So glad that you all are still open and providing it to others.

Review №19

The staff has been incredibly nice. They were very understanding as well. Whatever you do... pay attention the the address because 2 doors down is a woman’s choice clinic and they will lead you to believe you are in the right place, so you have a therapy session 30–40 min and mention you are in the wrong location. =/

There were so many questions, fears, and worries going through my head that morning, I just felt so sick to my stomach when driving to my appointment. But the second I walked in, I felt so much support, and knew everything would be alright. I did not feel alone through any part of this process. I felt it was so amazing to sit there in the waiting rooms and talk with other woman who are going through the same process as you. It made you feel that you were not alone. The doctors and staff were so amazing and answered all your questions and supported you through the whole process. Dr. Miller was a very sincere, and caring doctor and I really enjoyed him. I cannot thank this place enough for my experience.

I felt so welcomed here. I had to make the drive all the way from Biloxi, MS. This was a 7 hour drive. I had three people with me. When I found out I was further along than expected, and would have to have a two day procedure I didn’t know what to do. The ladies saw to it that the rest of the cost for the extra was paid for. There was minimal pain and maximum care. I had my procedure two days ago and have no experienced a single pain since.

If i could give less than 1 star I would. This clinic treated my wife as if she needed the abortion pill and sent her down 4 days of Pain and hospital visits only for her to have surgery for an ectopic pregnancy which this center CLARIFIED SHE WASNT ECTOPIC AND 6 weeks normal. She almost died from your malpractice. And if I don’t get resolution shortly then I will be suing. I’m pretty sure boards would love to know you’re callously misdiagnosing just to push your services.Edit:of course I know abortion care doesnt treat ectopic pregnancy but why would your physicians tell her she had a normal pregnancy then administer the pill knowing she was ectopic? Im sure you VERIFY PREGNANCY STATUS ON SITE RIGHT? I will be in first thing tomorrow.

Amazing place, amazing staff! So supportive and kind. I honestly think these nasty reviews left werent left by real people who visited this place. No one was mean, nasty, or rude. From check in to recovery, everyone treated me with respect and dignity!

Review №27

I rate the place a two only for the fact that there are a few workers there that are so nice and helpful, but for the rest of the workers they are rude! When I went the man doing my procedure was being rough with my arm to find my vein and got mad at me right along with him being rude there was a woman also being rude and shoving things in my hand it’s bad enough you have to wait for hours to get the thing done being nervous and then getting in the room to have someone be rude and rough. I will never go back there not even would I recommend it for someone else .

Review №28

Honestly, the worse experience of my life! I went in extremely nervous about the procedure and left traumatized. I don’t even know where to begin with the issues I had. From the staff arguing back and forth, talking badly on each other, and having all around attitudes to the lack of communication while I was gushing blood on the exam table! Ended up leaving there earlier than “recommended” drenched in blood because I was so traumatized. The dr. Barely spoke two words to me just ignored my questions and spoke only directly to the other employees. Half of the staff had horrible attitudes and literally got annoyed with your questions. I am only posting this review In hopes that it helps for someone to not end up with the experience I did. I don’t have a recommendation on a good place to go but whatever you do please don’t go here.

The desk lady was very rude and snappy - in front of other people . The place is not that nice ... they give 10 people the same time appointment as you and they discuss your business in front of other customers. This is the worst office I’ve experienced. And yes there are protesters outside this place.. if you want a cheap fix This it .

I did searches for days before making my decision but I couldnt really find satisfaction in any reviews on the matter. So this is for anyone who is scared ,unsure, lost, etc. the entire staff was very caring and sesntive to my nerves and worry. They are very thorough about the procedure and what will happen next. Its not a very plesent feeling for sure but the staff made everything as comfortable as humanly possible. Lots of positive things posted around the building. Thankyou for being who yall are and giving women a choice.

Lets start with sitting in a room with other women about to have the same procedure you are. Then you are all asked to go change into a gown leaving your bottoms on, all go back in that same room, this time with less dignity, because you have stripped some of that down. Im a little different from the other girls though. I was in a wreck and have had 3 recent surgeries and am on 30 mg of Percocets a day still. The staff was aware, the doctor was aware, Im a nurse, so I knew I may need a little more medication than the others to make me somewhat comfortable. I was walked back to the procedure room and laid on the table. The doctor came in and we talked about my meds, and I asked him if he was going to have to give me more medicine to help with the pain. He said I was getting the same as the others and it was going to be different for me. I said ok, lets see what it does. He gave me the medication and I felt a little change, but I knew it wasnt enough. I said I cant do this if this was the only relief I could get. The CNA/ultrasound woman said I can tell you are feeling the medication, you will be fine....then it started. The worst pain I have ever felt, I begged them to stop as soon as they started and was screaming and crying telling them how bad it hurt. Both the doctor and the CNA with me were cussing and she yelled at me to stop screaming because I was going to scare the other patients as she held me down to be still. And I really was trying, I kept thinking please dont let him perforate my uterus. But its really hard when you are feeling every single thing he is doing. At the end they are both cussing, the doctor and the CNA. I repeated back to them what they had just said and stated how unprofessional they are being. They both quickly leave as the CNA throws my sweatshirt between my legs and sends another girl in. She kept saying how it was my fault that my shirt had blood on it and told me to get dressed so she could take me to recovery. I was still crying really badly as she walked me in there to sit down and i was greated by a LPN who almost immediately asked me if I wanted to sign out AMA. I said no because I wanted to make sure I was ok. I was in pain and upset, but I knew I needed to be sure I wasnt bleeding too much. The others who were in recovery were all sleeping as I was still crying, and I took the one Ibuprofen I asked for when I said my pain was a 10. There was no iv in my arm, or anyone elses other than 1 girl, I asked why and she said that they only put them in to stay for the 2 day procedures. There was no one from anesthesia there, so Im assuming that is why they couldnt make me comfortable, its a one man show for all of those women.I asked how much longer I had left, and the LPN sent me to the bathroom to change and went back to be discharged. She asked my pain again, this time the doctor was sitting there and I said a 9, she gave me another ibuprofen, an antibiotic, and misoprostol. I asked the physician if he got it all and he said yes, you are completed. I was walked to the waiting room to meet my husband and as soon as I saw him I knew I was safe. He held me in his arms as I cried so hard I thought I was going to hyperventilate. We got in our car and started driving to the hospital because the pain and I couldnt breathe. He did finally calm me enough so I could catch my breath and talk. I actually used to work in one of these facilities as a LPN before I became a RN. In the 2 years I worked there I have never seen anything close to what I experienced. These people are full of so much hate. If you dont respond to the twilight sedation, may god help you. And once you go through that door they will not stop, no matter how many times you tell them no. Please do not go here, pay the extra money to go somewhere legitimate. Sorry this was long, but it was really a small insight into the worst day of my life.

Well, my experience wasnt as bad as that last review , however when i got there , there were like 20 people waiting, the front office lady was nice. It took a bit to get called and paid, btw i got the abortion pill, well i went into this other room, after getting my vitals, and like at least 10 of us girls waiting to get our procedures done, most of those women were in gowns, surgical procedures, it was uncomfortable , just waiting for my turn and a bunch of these other girls waiting, then i go into this other room, with the other girls who are going to take the pill, its not even an one on one appt, i didnt expect any of this, waited forever , the nurse/assistant ( forgot what she was) , was okay, she explained everything , and asked if we had questions, i didnt like the doctor, kinda rude and rushed it, i know i was glad to finally get out,but for this kinda thing , the doc should be idk, i just wished it wasnt a group appt . I know what i did , but i just cant believe how they just do these abortions back to back ,I felt kinda grossed out, so just keep that in mind before coming here,
