The Family Planning Division at Brigham and Women’s Hospital is committed to respecting autonomy, including reproductive choice. We strive to improve the health of women, pregnancy-capable people, and their families by providing family planning services that meet the highest standard of care in a non-judgmental, compassionate, and supportive environment.
Providing each patient with the opportunity to make their own informed decisions is at the core of our family planning services. We respect and trust individuals and their families to make the decisions that are right for them, whether is it about terminating a pregnancy or choosing a contraceptive method.
Our compassionate staff educates and supports patients through their decision-making while facilitating timely access to family planning services. We also support patients facing miscarriage or pregnancy loss.
Our Family Planning Center is located within an academic medical center. This setting is especially helpful for patients with complex medical issues that cannot be addressed at other outpatient clinics or whose needs may include general anesthesia.
In addition to providing clinical services, we conduct research to continuously improve family planning care and ensure access to abortion. Through teaching and mentorship, including our Complex Family Planning Fellowship, we train the next generation of physicians who are committed to reproductive health and are skilled in providing high-quality, comprehensive care for the full range of gynecologic needs.
The Family Planning Division collaborates with Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts to care for complex patients, provide clinical training, and conduct research.
For over a century, a leader in patient care, medical education and research, with expertise in virtually every specialty of medicine and surgery.
