462.0. "Looking for Feminist Health Ctr." by MEMV02::BULLOCK (Flamenco--NOT flamingo!!) Mon Aug 31 1987 11:14
For years I have gone to the Feminist Health Center in Concord,
NH for my gynocological workups. I have always been very happy
with both the price and the quality of service at the Center.
However, now that I have moved to Tewksbury, Mass. and work in Acton,
Mass. it's a little hard to get to.
Does anyone know of a similar Center in the area? I would also
like to find a place to have mammography done in the same area.
I called a place in Concord, Mass., but they insisted I have a
"real doctor" that they can send the results to...I haven't had
a "real doctor" in years, and didn't realize it was a crime to be
healthy! ;-)
Any advice would be welcome--I much prefer the helpful attitude
and no-hurry atmosphere of the Clinic to a gynocologist. Altho,
I suppose if I tried a female gyno it would be ok...again, any
suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Jane

| Well, there is the Portsmouth FHC. (Same as Concord) but I suppose
it's the same distance away.
I work in Westford, I saw a sign for the Westford Women's Health
Ctr. (or something like that) right on Rt. 110. I haven't been
there, but it would be on your way home. ??

| I guess I missed something here, but what is a Feminist Health Center?
Do only feminists work there or only feminists go there? Or is
it feminist in that only women work there or only women go there?
And as far as unhurried, why not go to a regular gyno? I've had
about 8 and all of them took their own sweet time. I missed classes
and labs because of their unhurriedness. You should try it.

| Did you ever find a feminist health center?
There's a good one in Cambridge, MA on Huron Ave.
called the Cambridge Womens' Health Center.
I live in Nashua, but if I have anything to discuss
with a gyno, I go there. They're an excellent source of
alternative birth control (cervical cap).
