Planned Parenthood

Wasn’t even able to get into my SCHEDULED appointment. When I initially scheduled it, they knew what my health insurance was but magically as I walked in they no longer accepted it. They offered to reschedule me, but I work 7 days a week and go to school at night. I was only able to get today off and I doubt my employer will allow me any extra time.
So thanks for being useless Planned Parenthood Mesa.

I’m incredibly grateful for Planned Parenthood. I was under my parents medical insurance until my father lost his job. Being 20, attending college, and only working about 15 – 20 hours a week I couldn’t afford to pay for medical expenses up front. And one thing I really needed was birth control. I live with my boyfriend and have been in a healthy sexual relationship with him for the past two years, and we want to wait till we’re both graduated from college to begin having children together. I know there’s always just condoms but those can fail at times. I came here and brought copies of my pay stubs to show my income and qualified for up to 85% coverage on my health care. I was so grateful and happy to know I could get my birth control and afford it. I also can go to planned parenthood for other things besides birth control. I can go there if I have a cold or flu. Which really puts me at ease knowing I can still have a place to go if I really get sick.
The wait times can be long, especially if you go in during busier hours. The first time I went it took about two hours to get my paperwork done, and wait to get my Depo shot. But the last time I went I was in and out in 30 minutes. So I guess the wait times can vary.

I was told with or without health insurance, I would never be turned away. Well guess what? I was turned away! They wanted a ridiculous amount just to get through the door, NOT including medications and exams. I called prior making sure I could set up a payment plan and was told that I could. After filling out paper work and waiting around an hour and a half, I was told payment plans were not an option and payment was due upfront. Absolutely ridiculous. Isn’t Planned Parenthood an organization to help women across the country, and especially those who unable to obtain health insurance? Never coming back here again.

They’re so slow. Every time I’ve come I sit in the lobby for at least an hour. I won’t be back after this

My appointment was scheduled for 10:15am. Good thing I have the day off with NO PLANS because it’s 11:50 and I am STILL sitting in the lobby amongst 4 other clients. I don’t understand the reasoning for an appointment if it clearly does not matter who gets in here first. Not to mention they don’t explain over the phone that this wait time is usually expected… appointment or not. The staff is friendly, yes, but communication & efficiency lacks. My total visit was 3 hours and 90% of it was in the lobby.

My first and only visit to planned parenthood was terrible. I made an appointment and still had to wait nearly 3 hours to be called back. When I was finally done they charged me an outrageous amount. I don’t have insurance but I’ve never had to pay as much as they charged me for a depo shot anywhere else I’ve been. The nurses were nice but the cons definitely outweigh the pros. I won’t be going back there.

Well the front desk lady was nice at first. Then when I decided to leave (because the wait is ridiculous) she laughed and made a smart remark. I was still polite as she handed me back my ID. I noticed the prices have changed. It’s more expensive and id be better off going somewhere else.

The prices are great but the wait is CRAZY just for picking up birth control that I called in on Monday it has taken me more than an hour. I finally got called but they can’t find my pills I ordered four days ago. Now I’m still waiting and I’ll be surprised if they actually do anything for me. I should have known. The first time I came here for my initial visit it took two hours with an appointment. That’s only 30 minutes of actually being in the back getting checked up and an hour and a half of wIt time! :(the only person that could finally help me was Adrianna! Thank you!

This place is cheap for sure especially if you have no insurance. However for about every $ 100 you save over going to the doctor’s you will spend about 1 hour here. For my initial exam it took over 3 hours!!! And this was WITH an appointment. The second and third time just picking up birth control pills (which I called ahead and ordered) it still took over an hour just to get them. Now that I’ve transfered to a different location it’s been over a week to get my files transferred. Now, I don’t know whose fault this is but still… The only pro is the price. If you have time to kill you can get $ 25 birth control pills here.
