I brought my daughter to this clinic today for a surgical abortion, and I was EXTREMELY impressed with the level of professionalism, compassion, and care she received. The overall experience was outstanding! Living in Texas, it is very difficult to find a clinic since there are so few left, and sadly the majority of the ones that remain open get away with providing a much lower standard of care. Also, Aaron Women’s Clinic was the ONLY clinic that had a Board Certified anesthesiologist to provide a true “deep sedation” which resulted in a completely painless, comfortable procedure. Most other clinics advertise IV sedation, twilight sedation or moderate sedation, but none of these are true deep sedation. Since they have an anesthesiologist, they are the only clinic that can provide deep sedation anesthesia which is the most common type of anesthesia used for short procedures. Full general anesthesia requires intubation and mechanical breathing assistance. With deep sedation, the patient can breathe on their own, does not have pain, and experiences amnesia so they have no recall of the procedure. We had attempted to have the procedure performed at a different clinic in Houston. My daughter had the sonogram performed there, and then on the procedure day they called me after 3 hours to tell me they could not perform the abortion. Although they advertised IV sedation., they gave my daughter 14 different pills to take by mouth. They never informed me she would be receiving any oral medication. She experienced an adverse reaction to these medications and ultimately they were unable to complete the procedure. Although my daughter did not receive the IV medication, the oral sedatives (a benzo combo) alone left her unconscious and unable to be roused for 26 hours after she was given the pills. After spending multiple days researching clinics, It was immediately apparent from the first phone call with Aaron Clinic that this clinic was in a league of its own, and our experience there was 100 % different from the experience we had at the other clinic. The entire office staff from the receptionist to the nurse and doctors were friendly, accommodating, and truly concerned for my daughter‘s well-being. Since my daughter is a minor (17), they allowed me to accompany her to the exam room. During our first meeting with the doctor. despite the fact that the clinic was extremely busy, we never once felt rushed, and the doctor took a very thorough and complete medical history. He carefully reviewed and discussed my daughter’s other health issues and medications. He took his time and went over absolutely everything. with us. I was immediately comforted by his years of experience, bedside manner, and knowledge. His wife also works in the clinic, I believe she is the practice manager, and she was absolutely amazing! Everything was very clean and sterile, and they strictly adhered to all state laws/requirements. This pregnancy was a rare and unexpected event since It occurred since my daughter had an IUD that was in place when she learned she was pregnant. Although I do not anticipate our family having the need for their services again in the future, I would definitely recommend this clinic to anyone in need of an abortion. Fortunately, we only live 45 minutes away, but if you live many hours away, it would be well worth the travel time to receive this level of medical care!
