  I went to this location to get an iud. I had decided I wanted one. The nurse who asked me all of the intake questions and such was great. She listened, explained and generally made me feel better. She even offered to sit in while I got it to hold my hand. I didn’t exactly feel comfortable with that, but I wish I had asked her to stay now. I belive her name was Meryl. We discussed the lidocaine injection and I had said I wasn’t sure, but she offered to get it ready incase I decided I wanted it. Now the actual lady who inserted my iud. When discussing the plan she was kind enough, but she went over opened the drawer with the speculums, picked one up with her ungloved hands, and put the lubricant on it. This made me violently uncomfortable. Why would you touch something that is supposed to be sterile and needs to go inside of me with your bare hands? I should have left or said something but I was so scared already. Then she did pelvic exams and inserted the same speculum. The hole time I was just wondering about the gloves and if she had them on for the next part. I think she did, but I couldn’t help but overthink. She told me the next part may pinch, little did I know she was doing the lidocaine injection. She did not actually tell me this. Although I am glad we did it, I again felt violated because I hadn’t actually said yes to this step yet. Everyone was nice, but those things made me feel really uncomfortable. I came to planned parenthood for an iud because other places had very long wait times, and I needed to get back on birth control. I think in the future I will trust my care with another establishment or at least location.

  I had my IUD done here and the staff was amazing. Everyone was so kind, thorough and checked in on me every step of the way. The MA Meryl was incredibly supportive and comprehensive with her care. She made she I had everything I needed before and after. Meredith was the one to insert the IUD and she was also fantastic. She was very quick, made sure I had proper pain management and walked me through every step of the way. A really great team that made a scary experience much easier!

  Going to PPNNE is a great way to get tested However my appointment will be at 12:30 and they won’t see me until after 1. I feel like I’m going to die in the waiting room before they get to me!

  I went and got an implant in my arm to replace the IUD which I had removed. The Dr. did not numb it properly. Not all the Lidocaine went in to the area and so it hurt pretty bad. After she didn't tell me much for post-insertion. I didn't know the pressure bandage was supposed to be on for 12-24 hrs and it was too loose so it fell off a few hours later. That night I started bleeding out of my bandage because of it. I looked post-, insertion instructions online as I wasn't told much. Now I know what's to do and what I should've done, but I should've been told. They make it sound like it's so minimal to get this implant and it really hurts!!
