Open Letter to Planned Parenthood Clients from Vanessa Cullins, MD, MPH, vice president for medical affairs, Planned Parenthood Federation of America
April 18, 2007
Dear Planned Parenthood Patients,
Today the United States Supreme Court made a decision that will affect some second-trimester abortions at Planned Parenthood. This law does not take effect immediately.
Planned Parenthood is committed to the health and safety of our patients, and we will continue to provide high-quality care, including abortion services, to our patients. Our medical professionals and lawyers are analyzing today’s court decision, and we will let you know of any changes in abortion care once we have fully evaluated the situation.
No changes in the law have gone into effect at this time. If you have an appointment, you should still come in. When you come in for your appointment, you and your doctor will discuss your situation, his or her recommendations, and your options. The bottom line is that we can help you and we are here to answer your questions.
