Great experience. They have parking and the place is safe and secured from the religious fanatics. Here I had access to preventive care, screenings and education about my health. This place is a community oriented health care provider and most importantly for all genders. I am glad there's a place like this for everyone that not only helps the community but does not discriminate if someone does not have insurance, on the contrary, they help everyone regardless of insurance status to get health care. I recommend one thousand percent! read more

Came into this office for a general office visit. They charged me full price out of pocket told me my insurance wouldn't cover it. Turns out my insurance covered every cent. This was 3 months ago, still have yet to recieve my refund they claim is still processing in the mail. Don't give them money, they took $950 from me upfront, CASH! read more

My experience at the front desk with worker felt dismissive. -Glendy- The medical assistant was kind and professional. The nurse practitioner provided good medical care. read more

Facility very clean, staff moved with grace and efficiency as soon as I arrived. The check in process was very seamless. After the necessary sonogram by the PA, I met with counselor. She was AMAZING! Very informative, offered great conversation, and extremely personable. Since I was there for such an emotional event, it was nice to be treated with such care and affection. While I hope to never be back for another procedure, I would definitely travel to see this staff again (mind you I can all the way from Brooklyn) :) read more

Wonderful experience here, everyone here is sweet, informative and helpful. Special thanks to Heidi and Dr. Gerber and everyone i interacted with that was part of staff was amazing read more

Planned Parenthood - Hempstead Health Center - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Hempstead, New York

As someone who has gone here for over a decade, the service here has improved drastically over time, particularly in how long a visit would take.. In my first couple of years being here, I remember waiting a couple of hours for appointments, & now it's lessened to a half hour or less. I've personally been on the Depo-Provera shot as my form of birth control throughout this time which I'm very pleased about, & I've always felt generally comfortable keeping my records updated when discussing my health with the professionals there. Super thankful to have this place. read more

JB, Annie, and Glenda helped me meet all my healthcare needs today! they are amazing and your work is soooo important. thank you for providing essential healthcare to the people. read more

Planned Parenthood - Hempstead Health Center - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Hempstead, New York

Went to get an IUD, Heidi the counselor made everything so much more comfortable! She doesn't miss a detail when explaining the process. She made sure I was comfortable with everything before moving forward. She also uses her own personal experience to make us feel better. She gives us the motherly love. If you ever go to this location, be sure to ask for Heidi ! read more

They were amazing . Heather Angie Marie were the bomb dot .com true Charlie's angel's they were the best took the stress away of the whole experience even their manager was great . They went above and beyond. read more

This is the worst planned Parenthood I've ever been to. I won't say why for personal reasons but trust me, don't go here. The old white female doctor and the young white female doctor completely violated my rights as a patient 2 years ago. It took my a while and lots of therapy to get over what happened. read more

If I can do zero stars I would. Staff is incompetent. extremely rude and talks about patients in Spanish. Unfortunately, for them spanish is my second language and I understood completely. They will also mess up your billing. AVOID AT ALL COST! read more

Everyone was nice but the bitch who does billing. She told my insurance wasn't accepted and it was. So I ended up laying $500 out of pocket and now have to make a claim. She was so rude. Basically said pay or leave. Disgraceful human read more

I was met with a voicemail that was 3 seconds that said "hi this is my voicemail I'm not here" and hung up immediately, completely unprofessional read more

I had a wonderful experience at this clinic. The environment is extremely comfortable. There are seemingly all women there, with your comfort and peace of mind as their top priority. Everything was explained extremely well, any question I could've had was answered, I was checked on at every stage. Planned parenthood is stigmatized to be an uncaring uncomfortable place but these women at this location are the complete opposite of what people may assume. Heidi, Erica, Adele and Kitty are just a few of the women on staff that assisted me and I only wish I was better with names because everyone deserves a shoutout for impeccable service and disposition. Thank you for everything ladies read more

Shit whole place you can't even get an appointment the service sucks incompetent workers it's not the same

Staff was very polite and welcoming, I truly thank everyone in the facility all of you guys made me feel very comfortable and welcoming, thank you everyone and I will definitely be back at this location if I ever need to. Amazing work ! read more

Ok place . Staff at reception area is nasty . Not sure why . You give them a answer and they ask the question again . Have you had symptoms? Answered no . Was asked again . My answer did not change it's still a no . Then there was so much attitude after . Rolling eyes , snatching documents . Don't come here until new staff is hired . Only 1 medical professional here that I love . Not sure her name but she has skin like Kylie Jenner and a smile bright like Beyoncé . Only reason I even come back here . read more

I had a appointment that I was 20 mins early too, they didn't take me until TWO hours later. This place has NO skills in time management, people who ya skater appointments than me went before me and left, I told reception multiple times they will make me late for class, they had a attitude and dismissed me. I stood up to the desk for a couple mins before any one looked at me. Never go here ! read more

Randy at the front desk had a very nasty attitude on the phone. Because I was misunderstanding the information she was telling me, she took it upon herself to give me a nasty attitude. If you cannot help someone, don't work front desk. read more

got my nexplanon implant here! staff was so kind and welcoming, and i was in and out within an hour! procedure itself took 10 minutes, and everyone made sure all my questions were answered and i was feeling safe and good. would definitely recommend coming here read more

Used to be a frequent flier in the 1990s. Had at least 2 Pregnancy Tests come back positive. The second one I felt like I was being bullied into terminate my pregnancy which turned out to be my only son who will be turning 20 in October. I'm not against abortion when it comes to other people it's there body there live and there choice they will live with. The last time I was there for an appointment was back in 2015. They are otherwise sensitive to other people's needs and compassion. If you find yourself pregnant they will help you make your decision to keep and carry the child to term and refer you to an OB/GYN, also if you decide on adoption they will refer you to an agency or if you choose to terminate they will work with you to choose the way you Want to go. They also have a health clinic for woman and men to deal with STDs like HIV as well as Diagnosing Breast Cancer or Cervical Cancer. read more

When I first read the reviews on this location of Planned Parenthood I was very skeptical. Between googles ratings and even here on yelp, I was not too sure if I should make an appointment. Since this was the closest location, I decided to give it a chance. I had an amazing experience with Maria B. She was awesomeeee!! She was my receptionist, my educator, my "doctor" (took my blood for HIV testing) and she was she last person I saw before I saw my provider. She made me feel comfortable and most importantly, I got her to laugh. Very sweet lady and I would come back to this location just because of her. read more

After waiting for 1.5+hours I was cornered in a 4'x6' room with these 2 women (who never introduced themselves with neither a name nor a medical title), and was told that my Mother who I had brought for emotional support was not to come in with me. These women began playing psychologist with me, which I was not about to play back. I thought I went to a medical clinic, not a psychologist office. They kept asking about my feelings, why I'm doing this, why I had done what I had done, why this is my decision, and kept insinuating (multiple times) that my mother (who was still in the front waiting room as I was being attacked) was making me have the abortion; while looking at me with those "sad, sympathetic eyes" but talking down to me all at the same time. They began getting nasty with me when they realized I was not willing to answer these questions above a surface answer. I knew these questions would have no sort of affect on the procedure, which was why I only wanted to answer medical questions. In fact, just as I was this close to having a meltdown, (as I was not expecting nor prepared for this kind of aggressive emotional approach from the employees, and was extremely uncomfortable without my mother present) the ladies began getting incredibly snotty with me. All I wanted was for them to ask their (actual medical) questions and be done with it. Instead they sat and pretended to be playing nice-nice while they tore through me emotionally and were probably two of the nastiest women I have ever met, especially in such an emotional place I would expect more kind, understanding women in their positions. I would recommend a 3-hour walk through a hurricane to just about any other clinic on the island if you are in a position where you will be needing any of the services that Planned Parenthood, Hempsted provides. read more

This place was very professional. They made it easy and fast for me by summing up forms as I filled them out and they had no problems answering any questions I had. I had a great experience with Yesenia, Jessica, Mary and Maria. They were funny which made me feel welcome. read more

Quick fast in and out service, the staff is wonderfully nice and helpful.. I have been coming to this well run and friendly pp for 5 years now since moving to Long Island .. thank you pp for all the help and the services you offer for an affordable price .. you guys do such an outstanding job!!! read more

Having some health issues and needed a biopsy so i made an appt and it took a month but i finally got in. The wait sucks but it happens. I had the same Dr. as last time. Her name is Elizabeth. Last time i was there i behaved very poorly and was not nice to her at all over not being able to get test done. I apologized up and down to her and her and the nurse were so nice and caring. She talked me thru all the steps of everything she was doing. It hurt like a motherfucker but i knew that going in. They always treat everyone there wonderfully and im so glad i have them. Sorry again Dr. Elizabeth you def changed my life for the better. :D read more

So friendly and helpful! I recently lost health coverage and these ladies helped cover me when i needed help the most.

I am a faithful patient and supporter of this Planned Parenthood! the staff are so cordial and helpful, and all of the doctors and nurses are very knowledgeable with a great bedside manner. The facility is very clean and welcoming. They offer a wide variety of services, so it is a one stop shop for all of my feminine healthcare needs. This planned parenthood is a valued part of our community, and I'm grateful for all of the employees who make each visit a success. read more

Just called to make an appointment for an IUD placement. My regular OB GYN office wouldn't do it today because I didn't start my period ( I will later this week though) and there is no availability until end of January/February!!! It was so easy! I called, confirmed they could do an annual exam tomorrow and insert my IUD anytime later in the week once I started my period. And the lady on the phone was so kind and polite. I would guess they've made some changes since the earlier reviews. This organization is wonderful, truly helps women and understands the importance of getting contraception in a timely manner. I will update after my appointments with a description of wait times, staff, etc. *update 12/15/15 after 1st appointment This clinic is amazing! It was a busy day so there was a bit of a wait but it's not any longer than I've experienced at most doctors' offices. They performed the basic exam and told me what to expect for the IUD insertion. I made an appointment for the next day. 12/16/17 2nd appointment Iud insertion visit went really well! Because I filled out the new patient paperwork the day before I was in and out within an hour! I will be coming back for all of my reproductive care! Oh and all the staff is kind, patient and hilarious. From the front desk staff to the providers, everyone made me feel comfortable, welcomed and safe. Thank you Planned Parenthood!! read more

I like the service I get from the Nurse Practitioner that I usually see. But I must complain about the wait. The wait is usually over an hour long, even two hours long. This is unacceptable. Today I came here at 7PM for a 7:30PM appointment, and at 8:10PM I STILL have not been seen. I hope they improve the wait time because it is very inconvenient. read more

Shorter wait time compared to other PP. But it's still relatively long. However they've dealt with my youngest crying her head off as she had to wait with her uncle in the waiting room. They quickly saw me. Even asked if I wanted to step out for a quick sec to tend to her when I know they don't stop. Couldn't find a babysitter on a short notice as I had to be seen that day, which I know is bad on my part. But they all tried to make her giggle and comfort her. They did not show a single moment of annoyance or judgment. They understood and even gave me a follow up appt to the time I wanted to accommodate to her nap time. read more

I went to PPNC with my best friend who was getting an IUD put in (was driving her home), and was blown away by how nice the staff was. The waiting area is colorful and spacious, and people seemed to be taken into the exam rooms shortly after arriving. Everyone was treated with equal amounts of compassion. My friend loved the PA who she saw, and I am definitely going to use that same PA for my future GYN needs. I totally trust Planned Parenthood, and as a young woman with some insurance issues and financial uncertainty, it's incredible to have this resource so close to home. read more

usually great service here and friendly front staff, i get it that some people have bad days but im nervous about coming today and i left work early to make this 4:15 appointment and the ladys acting so rude! thank God the actual doctors are excellent here! stop acting mean front staff! seriously NOT COOL read more

Very unhelpful. They advertise how helpful they are and open about helping women trying to get proper care so they don't fall pregnant but when you talk to the obnoxious rude arrogant and scrutinizing girls at the front desk it's as if they don't even want you there and that their doing you a favor when all they do is fill out the paperwork. Horrible customer service make you feel like you're burdening them with you even being in their facility. Especially the Spanish girl in the front with black hair she's completely mean and rude. Also I don't have insurance and as a student it's free but They continuously ask me to sign up for some insurance plan everytime and I politely decline. Knowing I don't have coverage I went here for that reason and it's as if they want you to pay out of pocket anyway and they know I'm struggling. The only descent part are the doctors the first one that gave me a check up was alright and the second doctor that gave me the iud was a sweetheart and was very knowledgeable and not judgmental at all. Planned parenthood in the city is never like this completely helpful and encouraging, great people and doctors and quick and no judgmental snickering glances or attitudes. I feel at a place like this when planned parenthood is a very controversial place and you're already getting judged by society you shouldn't also feel like you're being judged by the people that work there as well. I will never come here again. read more

I called this office earlier today to make an appointment and was TURNED AWAY! In fact, the woman in the office hung up on me! I ended up making an appointment at a Suffolk County location without a problem. They were much nicer and understanding of the situation. I know it's hard for some people to get out to Suffolk, but trust me it's worth it. Nassau County Planned Parenthood are rude and disrespectful. I would never trust them with my health or well being after being treated that way over the phone. read more

Everytime I leave the Hempstead location, it's with a bad taste in my mouth. The ONLY good thing about this place are the physicians. They are kind, caring, knowledgeable, non judgmental, and supportive. But unfortunately before you get to them you can to get through they're atrocious staff. Rude, arrogant, judgmental, very unhelpful staff. They act like you're bothering them for even asking to be seen. They don't take their jobs seriously. They're extremely unpleasant to speak to. This is serious work that a person would need a heart to be able to do and their staff acts as if it's a McDonald's line. I'll never come here again and I warn anyone reading this that you surely experience the same lazy mistreatment I have endured. My suggestion if it's feasible for you is to go to the ones in the city. I never have an issue there. The staff is the complete opposite of the service I received as Hempstead. You'll leave feeling supported rather than offended. read more

The staff is nice. Very sweet women. Always trying to make one comfortable. I appreciate all of the employees here.

Doctor was so kind and the wait wasn't long but front desk staff were extremely rude. I was trying so hard not to cry. The atmosphere is really unwelcoming. read more

I have only amazing things to say about the team/experience at this location. I have been treated with respect and smiles since I have been a patient. I started coming to PP to learn more about Prep, and it has been extremely helpful. I have been given adequate resources on the facts and procedures of the medication, and every question I asked was answered quickly and with a smile. In order to start prep, it requires quite a few visits, and I feel like the team here welcomes me as family. Everyone remembers me when i walk in, and I leave satisfied and confident that I made the right decision to visit. Thanks for making this experience so painless, and we appreciate everything you do to help our community. read more
