The women working the clinic were amazing. I was upset because I was getting an early termination of a pregnancy (5 weeks) and the women working were extremely supportive. They didn't make me feel any more guilty then I already feel, they explained everything perfectly. There was a doctor and 2 nurses and I cant say a bad word about any of them. One of the nurses was really lovely and gave me a hug and said it's the right decision for you at this time. Honestly, I've heard horror stories about abortion clinics and these women were just amazing.

Dear Relieved&sad,
Thank you for taking time to share your recent experience in our Early Medical Abortion Clinic in SHSCT.
It is good to hear that you found all the staff were amazing and supportive. We understand this is a difficult time for many women but as the nurse said; you made the difficult but the correct decision for you at this time.
Your honesty will help other women considering this treatment. Informing Choices offer free impartial counselling at any time after this treatment should you need this in future.
Sincerely,
EMA Team, SHSCT.
