"Physician owned and operated"
______________________________________________________
Everyday, modern medicine continues to become more sophisticated and reliable, and fortunately, so do the options that women now have when seeking an abortion related medical procedure. At Florida Women's Center our physician controlled environment provides women with the comfort of knowing they are obtaining modern medical care by a recognized known and experienced medical doctor. This is what sets us apart from from many abortion clinics that are owned or operated by persons with no active medical licenses or no professional medical degrees. The choice is yours and patients deserve to know the difference between the different practices offering abortions and medical care.
There are really two types of facilities that provide abortions:
The first type is generally what people think of in their minds when someone says "abortion clinic". Unfortunately, but for many reasons, this term brings to mind certain perceptions. Abortion clinics may advertise as having been around for years, and are often the ones that you envision where protesters are standing outside with signs, and care is often still being provided inside by unidentified physicians. These types of abortion clinic business practices are sometimes not owned or run by a doctor, but actually may be owned by an individual or individuals who are not actually licensed medical professionals. Clinics of this nature are running a business that provides abortion procedures under the license of what are termed, "medical directors". These medical directors are may or may not be the physicians who provide the actual medical care in this type of clinic. They may or may not even live in the local area. In Florida, this is actually allowed as long as the individual owner designates a medical director. These types of clinics often may schedule patients in groups at the same time and there are commonly undesirably long waits in rooms of people to be seen. As you can imagine, this can be an undesirable experience.
The second type of facility offering abortions are modern office centers that are actually physically owned and additionally directly operated by actively practicing medical doctors like ours at Florida Women's Center. We do every thing we can to provide a true medical office environment on a daily basis with a goal of maintaining quality and continued care for women. We provide care and treat women for many gynecologic issues, including safe pregnancy terminations in our comfortable medical office environment. We adhere to the philosphy that all medical care should always be governed, provided, and supervised by professionally licensed medical doctors. Our modern office setting is known and recognized as being a completely physician owned , directed, and locally supervised practice, providing only doctor-directed care in a modern private physician run medical facility. We respect and recognize that medical advice and treatment must be provided only by licensed and trained medical professionals. Our physician-only care is the design and operation of Florida Women's Center. It is a doctor's office, and all of your abortion care and ultrasounds are provided only by licensed physicians. Women can now obtain safe, comfortable, and competent surgical abortions and continuity of care by known and experienced abortion provider physicians. We make our care at Florida Women's Center a private and personal experience by a supportive and comforting staff. This is one of the main reasons that physicians both locally and in other cities specifically recommend and refer their patients to Florida Women's Center when they have patients that are faced with the abortion decision.
Ultimately, the choice is yours and every patient should seek care where they feel they will receive the best possible care at this important decision making time.
Our dedicated private women's center is specifically designed and chosen for its location in a private hospital medical complex. We realized that women need a facility that they can go to in order to obtain abortion care in a private, safe, reliable, and comfortable location, as with all medical care. We have always recognized how important privacy, dignity, and confidentiality are to our patients and we provide women with the option of obtaining completely confidential abortion services. Our facility in Jacksonville is owned by a Florida licensed physician and securely located in a privately accessed hospital medical complex. We provide our patients with the highest level of privacy, comfort, and confidentiality schedule all of our patients so that they receive medical care in a caring and comfortable medical setting.
Office appointments and services are offered six days a week, with both morning and afternoon appointments available. We provide all patients with the most modern, safe and effective anesthesia available, which can assure you the comfort you expect from your physician. Our supportive and non-judgmental approach to providing medical care provides patients the comfort necessary to assure a smooth transition through this important time.

Florida Women's Center has been very active and instrumental in setting many new and highest standards for private abortion services in Florida. We continually strive to exceed the expectations of patients seeking medical assistance during this often difficult decision and due to our recognized comfortable, private medical setting, we have become one of the leading physician and hospital referred abortion providers in our region.
