I could not be happier with my experience at Early Options. After researching, I was completely put off by the idea of being part of the day-long assembly line style that you see at most practices, and the idea of going under anesthesia seemed unnecessary. Fortunately, Early Options eliminates all of those things and makes the entire process normal and civilized. The staff was incredibly friendly and overall just put me at ease. I was there for just about 2 hours and left feeling unexpectedly exhilarated by how great the whole experience was. The actual SofTouch procedure was very quick - I would say two minutes, and felt pretty similar to a pap, especially if you have had a biopsy. I was surprised when it was over because I expected it to be much more uncomfortable. I did feel some dizziness immediately after, but that faded quickly and I was out the door within 20 minutes. There was some mild cramping and bleeding for the rest of the day, but overall, I felt totally normal. This experience is how abortions SHOULD be - it is totally normal and does not need to be the big production that other facilities make it into. It is wonderful to have this option available and hope that it becomes more the norm! read more

Ask a woman if she wants an abortion when she comes into the office. Not everyone that comes there wants an abortion - there are significant outside pressures including coercion and outside pressure - there should be a mental health screening first - this is life and death. If I was only asked the question "do you want an abortion" I would have said no - instead I was told its just tissue. That tissue was my baby. The staff is really kind and comforting, however, I was told that it was "just tissue" and even shown the tissue after the procedure. There is only tissue left because the baby has been torn to shreds. I was told the heart was just electro-magnetic waves. Its not just tissue! I support the woman right to choose - but all this false advertising that its easy and soft is a lie! Stop gaslighting women that abortion is just cells or tissue - it has grave psychological impacts. This "soft-touch" was the single most painful thing I have ever experienced. It was excruciating, traumatizing, and I felt the moment my baby died. It's false advertising to say this is a "simple procedure" and you can go right back to work. The pain was horrific and it continued for days on end. I was given an anxiety pill to help with anxiety - but anxiety should be felt, its a warning sign - maybe listen to your body and don't do this. Memories of this place haunt me. Despite the very kind staff, it was quite torturous to experience such a high level of pain (and I have a very high pain intolerance). It's inhumane to have your baby sucked out and killed like that. The physical pain lasted for weeks. The psychological pain has lasted forever. read more

Dr. Fleischman is simply amazing and I am so thankful that I went to Early Options. I wish that every woman had access to this type of care. The kindness that I experienced here is something that I will never forget. read more

I'm so thankful that I found Early Options. I did a lot of research, and it was the only clinic that I found that offered a procedure aside from the surgical and medical abortions. It is also the only clinic that allows partners to be present for the entire appointment. My boyfriend joined me, and I felt so much peace from having his support and not feeling alone. The procedure was very quick and felt like an intense menstrual cramp. I had some pain after but they assured me to take my time relaxing and recovering and I felt great after a couple minutes. I was able to walk out pain-free and go about my day as soon as we left. The entire team took their time answering our questions and giving us their full attention. Early Options is well worth the price for the level of care that you get. I don't think anywhere else in the country could compare, and we feel so lucky that we were able to come here. read more

Horrible experience!! Was not given a sonogram or follow up appointment after procedure. She advised me to take two doses of meds to stop the cramping which doctors later told me were abortion pills. I saw 4 doctors and admitted to the hospital twice within two weeks of her procedure. Her office does not have the capability to provide a proper sonogram or do cultures. I asked for a refund which she said she had no problem doing then turned around, got a lawyer and said no. If you have any issues be prepared for her to tell you about her Harvard degree instead of owning up to her mistakes! She's is absolutely disgusting! read more

Although my partner and I ultimately chose not to go through with the procedure because that was the best option for us, this office made the whole decision make a lot easier. Beyond welcoming, comforting, understanding and warm, in comparison to clinics scattered around the city. They respect you as a person, and as a human. I spoke with Madeline who was very genuine. She reassured us of any concerns we had. This is the best office you can go to if ever faced with this circumstance, whether you are undecided or decided. I absolutely recommend this office. Thank you Early Options for everything. read more

Hopefully I don't impregnate anyone else, but if I do, these are my peeps. Ok, bad joke, but for anyone reading feeling stressed, I am glad to be able to help confirm how great Early Options is. From a man's perspective, I am thankful for how they made a difficult and emotionally wracking experience as comfortable as possible for my girlfriend (and for me, too). I suspect this is a difficult business to be in, so I appreciate the doctors who stand up and offer this very necessary health service. EO is professional, discreet, and sensitive to the needs of their patients. read more

I'm so glad I found Early Options and these reviews, as they are a big reason I chose to contact them. I was able to get an appointment 2 days after my call on a Sunday, and when I arrived Dr. Fleischman, Brianna and their team made me feel totally at ease. I can't believe how little discomfort I felt, and that I was able to walk out feeling completely fine 20 minutes after the procedure. Plus I didn't have to take a sedative or any drugs, which was very important to me. The actual procedure was only a couple minutes, it wasn't pleasant but it wasn't painful either. About 10 minutes of cramping and then I felt back to normal and I took the subway home feeling fine. My friends who have had abortions in the past at other places warned me of heavy bleeding, cramping for days and a lot of pain. I'm so thankful I found Early Options because I have experienced none of that. I felt absolutely fine the next day. I will say I did leave feeling sad, because the idea that most women have a totally different, invasive, uncomfortable, sometimes shameful and even dangerous experience is appalling. Dr. Fleischman needs to build a global empire to teach this and her bedside manner to doctors around the world! read more

I'm writing this review as I hope that it will be informative to other women who are looking for a safe and affordable solution to what for many can be a sensitive and difficult situation. I researched several options available in New York City and when I contacted Early Options, I was met with evasive answers to my straight forward question of cost for the SofTouch abortion procedure. Needless back and forth emails followed as I repeatedly asked for a definitive answer on cost. I found the lack of transparency to be suspect and decided to read through all of the reviews until I found one that mentioned the cost of the procedure. I followed up with the clinic and was finally given a definitive answer (as the cost had changed since that review had been posted). Here is the response: "The SofTouch procedure and the Abortion Pill is a flat fee of $2,100. We take a $300 deposit to secure your appointment. We can also provide an insurance form to submit to insurance companies but of course it depends on the insurer whether there will be any reimbursement." I have little doubt that Early Options provides stellar care for their patients, as the reviews attest. But I am not able to afford such care and would like to have been given the necessary information up front. I followed through with an appointment at Planned Parenthood Boro Hall in Brooklyn. I was very happy with the services provided. Registration was cool and perfunctory, but the nurse, counselor and doctor that I met with were exceptional- warm, concerned, informative and entirely non judgmental. My abortion at 7 weeks was 450 dollars based on my current income. I hope this helps. I wish all the best to those researching their options. read more

The entire staff in this place is amazing. I always thought abortions were scary and harsh on the body but with the soft touch procedure that this place offer was great. A little cramping and pressure but definitely not painful. I was in and out in about 1.5 hours. The procedure itself last a little under 5 minutes, while the cramping only lasted about 10. Would definitely recommend Early Options to anyone looking for a very discreet, professional and friendly place to terminate a pregnancy! read more

I cannot express my gratitude for this place. I initially found this place upon searching for planned parenthood first and for some reason I just didn't feel comfortable with PP. I researched some more and then called them and that's when I got created by Francesca (I think she spells it a bit different) but she is the most wonderful person I can ever think of when it comes to being a nurse. She is so attentive and so understanding and just very soft spoken. Yes deciding to terminate a pregnancy is extremely difficult and heartbreaking but she made me feel so at home and as friend rather than a stranger. I can't thank her enough. I love how private the office feels. It is on the pricey side but at the same time, I'd pay the price for great experience. Thank you to the wonderful staff at EO for everything you've done for me. read more

I am so thankful that I stumbled upon Early Options. I always use protection, but when my period was late, I took two pregnancy tests, and was shocked when they both read, "positive." At that point I just felt lucky that I was early enough in my pregnancy to just take an abortion pill. I had heard horror stories about Planned Parenthood experiences in general, so after searching for "natural" and "noninvasive" abortion options in NYC, I called Early Options and spoke to Franceska, who informed me about their unique SofTouch procedure. I browsed their website and read that the abortion pill is 96-98% effective and requires a lot of downtime, whereas the SofTouch is almost 100%, and does not include any scraping or cutting and requires less than an hour of downtime. Franceska helped me secure an appointment for the very next morning. When I got to the office, Franceska took the time to place me in a comfortable room and set up the air conditioning because I was super hot and anxious. She took my blood pressure, informed me it was normal, then took my blood and informed me of my iron levels. She answered all my questions and walked me through all the paperwork in the most comforting way possible, even though I was being really paranoid and reading the paperwork line by line. Then I met Dr. Fleischman, who was very kind, took the time to listen to all my concerns and thoughtfully answered my questions about the procedure, about my period and informed me about birth control options, since I'm avoiding hormones and am weary of implants. The SofTouch procedure itself wasn't painful: There were 1-2 minutes of major discomfort/pressure that felt like a stomach cramp, but no actual pain. Side note- this is apparently the only place in the United States where you can bring in a person of your choice to be there with you throughout the entire abortion procedure. They gave me a dose of antibiotics to take later that evening as a preventative measure. They gave me a instructions with a pregnancy test to take 7 days later, because I was so early in my pregnancy 3-4 weeks, that they wanted to make sure that l the procedure was thorough. It ended up being thorough, and Dr. Fleischman did a wonderful job. They gave me a comprehensive list of what to expect in terms of symptoms and possible warning signs of complications, and they gave me a 24-hour number to call in case I had concerns or needed help. I'm so thankful. I feel this review is the least I can do to show my gratitude to the wonderful people who helped me through the incredibly anxious and frightening experience of an unwanted pregnancy. I really hope that their kind and sensitive approach to abortions, as well as their unique SofTouch procedure, will become available to more women throughout the U.S. and throughout the world. Writing this review years later, I feel that coming to Early Options was one of the wisest decisions I've ever made. It is completely insane that women in the United States are being forced and shamed into suffering by carrying out unwanted pregnancies and childbirth. I am extremely grateful that Early Options was there for me when I needed them. Sending you my deepest thanks. read more

I can't begin to say enough good words about Early Options and their services. First of all, everyone working here is incredible and genuine and kind and supportive. Secondly, they are very informative and made me feel comfortable and confident. Even during the procedure they were very aware of me every step of the way. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I'm thankful that I can continue living my life because of something accidental. I was back to normal 20 minutes after and walked about 6 more miles and had no painful side effects, just some regular period cramping! I will be referring anyone who wants the option to terminate early to this place. Grateful to the amazing Doctor F and her team !!! read more

So much false advertising about this place! The procedure is highly painful and traumatizing. You feel like they're eviscerating you with no sedation and no anesthesia. You feel like going to a butcher. You feel you're almost dying. I still have nightmares about the totally unexpected and highly intense pain during the 'soft touch". There is nothing soft about this method. Even the name is outrageous. The discomfort continued for 3 weeks. Nightmares are still troubling my sleep 4 months later. I was totally misled by a bunch of fake reviews. Just watch and my negative review is going to disappear from the Internet in a matter of weeks. Ask yourself what's going on. Understand this scam is playing with your health. Don't be fooled or you will be scarred for life! read more

Dr Fleischman and her team exude true compassion, knowledge and friendliness, and provide a vital service that I wish any person needing to end an early pregnancy could access. The office is calming and welcoming, and they clearly explain your options beforehand through a virtual visit. The procedure itself is quick and feels like one bad menstrual cramp plus pressure. There is no surgery (e.g. D&C) and therefore no scarring. I was in the park two hours later, able to give full energy and attention to my two, wonderful little kids. While I would rather not have needed this service, it was very much worth the price, and I feel fortunate to have met these women. read more

Given how difficult this situation is, i cannot thank the team at Early Options enough. I had gone through a traumatic natural miscarriage 2.5 years ago, i was so scared to have to go through the same amount of physical/mental pain, i was looking for another option. I'm so glad i saw these amazing reviews on yelp and decided to give it a try. It started with a pleasant and informative phone call, the receptionist was patient and helped me answer as much questions as i could think of. They managed to squeeze me in the next morning, my husband and i arrived without seeing anyone else. They were very serious about this process being as private and comfortable as possible. After a series of questions, check ups, ultrasounds and forms, they started the process. The nurse was extremely sweet, trying to distract me so i'm less nervous. The whole thing lasted 2 mins, the cramps were bearable and surprisingly totally managable. I had slight cramps afterwards, and they gave me a heating pad which helped, I was up and about after 10 mins. It shocked me, why women dont have this technology as an option to deal with such an difficult situation. If i had know about Early Options during the time i had my miscarriage, i would have hands down done this before i decided to do it naturally. read more

Having gone through issues for years I ended up at this wonderful place and I'm glad I did. The staff and doctor were nothing but wonderful. I can not recommend highly enough. If you need their services please run do not walk. I have never felt so safe. read more

I wish all women who are leaning towards ending their pregnancy early had the option of choosing Early Options. I cannot thank Dr. Fleischman and her staff enough for the special care I received. From the moment you enter the office, you feel comfortable and warm. I was lucky enough to be granted a well appreciated discount for my SoftTouch procedure. The procedure itself lasted only a few minutes and the only pain felt were some intense cramping. I'm usually not great with my menstrual cramping so I did need a moment to catch myself after the procedure was complete. Dr. Fleischman and Kaitlin were both very patient and understanding with me. You will automatically feel the difference from entering this office versus a clinic filled with many people. They ensure that you have all the privacy needed considering the circumstances. Not once did I see or hear another patient and my boyfriend was at my side from start to finish. Thank you ladies once again! I will forever appreciate the work you are doing for us women. read more

During such a difficult time and decision, I am so grateful that there are practices like this still around. From the first phone call I made, I was greeted by comforting, understanding women who seemed to genuinely care about my decision and finding the best solution for me. This was an extremely private experience and I was given the time to talk through everything, voice my concerns and come to a decision I felt at peace with. Before I went in, I was an emotional wreck- But Dr. Fleischman is an amazing woman to talk to and helped to rationalize everything with my partner and I. I have not one bad thing to say about this place, from the start to finish the process was maintained with dignity and respect. If you're a woman who has found yourself in this situation and you're terrified of going to a clinic where you're basically treated like assembly line cattle- I would without question come to this practice. Basically, this is a terribly difficult thing to go through no matter what, however, Dr. Fleischman and her team have made it as comfortable and natural as possible. I am truly grateful that this practice is available for women. read more

Don't ever go there!!! This is not professional place. Front desk person assisting the doctor. I almost lost my uterus and end up in the hospital for 2 weeks , going through the whole course of very strong IV antibiotics , because they're did not do proper procedure. DON'T RISK YOUR LIFE! Go to the professional place!!! read more

Dr.Fleischman and her assistants are super nice. I have uterus retroposition. Abortion pills are ineffective for me. Dr.Fleischman spent 2-3 weeks helping me physically and mentally. My fiance and I are very grateful to their efforts. If you get in trouble, contact them without hesitation. Dr.Fleischman can absolutely give you the best help. read more

If you're confused on what you want to do with your early pregnancy look no further. Early options has really made this past week way more bearable and made me feel safe with my options. I really wasn't too sure what I wanted to do with my decision with my unexpected pregnancy. Dr. Fleischman not only was supportive with what my partner and I wanted to decide, but she also gave realistic, comforting, and non biased advice. Her and Madeline are both incredible women who make you feel like you're not just another random patient, they make you feel like family!!! I had my appointment today and went in there today just trying to get a feel for what was to come. I found out through a sonogram that my pregnancy didn't look normal, and was likely to become a miscarriage so I decided to go through with the SOFtouch procedure before I would really be traumatized living through a natural miscarriage. The procedure lasted 35 seconds tops and it was uncomfortable but, it wasn't unbearable. It's good to know it's over and that I wouldn't have to suffer with the next couple of weeks knowing that my pregnancy wasn't on the right track. Thank you is a understatement from early options. Trust me! If you want to be in the best hands, with whatever you decide with this early pregnancy. They will give you amazing advice. read more

Angels on earth. I am a professional woman that happens to be extra fertile and needed quick, discrete service. Early Options gave me the dignity, compassion and expeditious procedure that I needed. From appointment scheduling, to private rooms, to holding my hand, to complete thorough check out and follow up, you must choose EarlyOptions. My investigation of other facilities was traumatic. Their aspiration and other early option procedures do not follow the same guidelines as this amazing center and The lack of female doctors and long expected waits should make you very wary. Please use Early Options through this difficult time, your body and mind will thank you. read more

I had a manual vacuum aspiration procedure today and I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff, nurse and Dr. Fleischman. From beginning to end they are all extremely attentive, nuturing and are clearly providing healthcare services that are ESSENTIAL to the health & wellbeing of all women. Many women aren't aware that this long-standing, minimally-invasive procedure exists and I hope to convince you, if you're reading this, to call their office to ask whatever questions you may have. They're all answered quickly, easily and with compassion. Dr. Fleischman has been performing this procedure for decades and is a teacher to other physicians who wish to learn. This is the EXACT practice in which to get this done. This is a very quick procedure (10-15 mins), no need for anaesthesia and I've had no side effects at all. Do yourself a favor and check them out, you'll see why women visit this practice from all over the world. read more

Early Options in Manhattan made a most positive lasting impression on me. Walking in I immediately felt relaxed and even happy that I was in such a safe and comforting place. The intimate team of women running this clinic make it their mission to care for you as an individual taking great care to make sure you are comfortable, relaxed, safe, and well informed about the truths in ending a pregnancy. There is nothing to be afraid of. I recommend Early Options to every woman! read more

I am so grateful and glad that Early Options exists. The doctors and practitioners are knowledgeable, comforting, and consummate professionals who seemed genuinely concerned about and entirely focused upon my physical and emotional well-being. The experience felt completely safe, personal, and discreet. Neither my boyfriend nor I saw another patient during the two and a half hours that we were there. I would recommend Early Options to any woman. read more

My wife, I and our two young kids were visiting Newyork city on a holiday when we were caught unawares with an early pregnancy which we were sure we could not keep ! When you are in a city that is not your home it is even harder to make the decision as to which doctor to visit and we were quite nervous as to what we were going to do . I thank my stars and the blessings of the higher powers above that my research online led me to Early Options and Dr Joan Fleischman. I was given an appointment promptly for the same day which was also a blessing as we were then traveling within the United States and only had this small window of time . My experience as a husband was one of the most fulfilling as not only was I able to protect and shelter my wife from unnecessary pain and suffering but I was also able to be with her right through the procedure . The procedure itself lasted about 6 minutes and I was amazed to see my wife up and about in less than an hour with no side effects or tiredness at all ! I realised that you do not need to swallow pills that have side effects , undergo anesthesia, nor do you have to be hospitalized in order to have the soft touch procedure. When we got back to our kids she had more energy than before and I was happy ....as a happy wife means a happy life :) It is disheartening to see that so many women have to suffer unnecessarily and go through high levels of anxiety and stress when it comes to ending their pregnancies . I do hope Dr Fleischman and her wonderful team of doctors and nurses will be able to spread their love and message to women across the globe and make this experience better not only for the woman but also her partner and family . read more

Dr. Fleischman and her staff are the best. I can't thank them enough for their amazing care during my recent procedure. I chose an MVA for my twin miscarriage as I was looking for a less invasive alternative to a D&C procedure. I felt the MVA procedure was a better choice for me as I wasn't comfortable with with the risk of scaring due to the D&C procedure which involves scraping the uterus. Dr. Fleischman and her nurse were so incredibly nice the day of the procedure. They made me feel very comfortable and really took a personal approach. The procedure is only a few minutes and was only mildly painful. The nurse was next to me the entire time and was so comforting it was like having a friend or family member in the room. There is virtually no recovery and I was back to normal the same day. I would highly recommend Dr. Fleischman's practice if you're looking for a personal approach and a less invasive procedure. read more

This was a scary moment in my life but Dr Fleischman was there the whole way. My experience was unique but they made me feel comfortable.

Dr. Fleischman is absolutely amazing. I am someone who has a lot of anxiety and she helped me through it all. I had come in for a procedure and unfortunately due to my anxiety I could not go forward with it. I was given the pills and went home extremely upset because that is not what I wanted to do. They were very understanding and took me the next day to try again. Dr. Fleischman was very gentle and the procedure was about 60 seconds. Minimal cramping but not something you can't handle. I am so happy I took the courage to come back and not allow anxiety to win. She makes you feel safe and at home. She definitely has that soft touch. :) read more

Atrocious pain, I was fooled by all the false advertising. Having an abortion with no anesthesia is barbaric, immensely painful, and highly traumatizing. I will never forget the physical pain and the huge discomfort that followed for weeks. Both totally unexpected because the doctors and nurses in this place just tell you you're going to have some moderate cramping and restart normal activities almost immediately. Huge lie! Be careful or you'll be permanently traumatized and scarred. read more

I cannot say enough amazing things about early options. Though this is a sensitive topic I decided to write a review because these reviews really helped me when I was going through this. I ended a pregnancy alittle over four weeks ago. Long story short, I did not plan to get pregnant but it happened. My boyfriend was actually the one who found early options and after a day of having a mental breakdown over the situation I decided to give them a call. (I also called planned parenthood and Was prepared to go there thank god I found this place). The woman who answered the phone was a SWEETHEART she literally let me cry for five minutes to her on my drive to work and she just listened and let me know I wasn't alone. I don't know how she listened to my rambling with such poise but she did not rush me off the phone AT ALL and she answered all of my questions. Because the price was more than I could afford she sent me a link for a discounted price form. After filling out the very short form (literally five questions), i received an email within the hour telling me I was approved for a discounted price so PLEASE ASK THEM ABOUT THIS!!! I went in a week later (worst wait of my life!) and dr. Fleschman and her staff were amazing! They take the whole privacy thing extremely seriously too! I did not see one other person. The office is super clean and quiet with little snacks and drinks. I went into the room and the nurse took some blood and talked to me about life which made me very calm. I opted for the MVA (vacuum) instead of the pill...Soon after the doctor came in and broke everything down second by second. BEST PART my bf was allowed to stay with me the whole time even during the procedure. She then did a sonogram and confirmed that I was 5weeks and she began the procedure...nothing after that hurt until the actual MVA and it was two SUPER INTENSE cramps. It was bad but the doctor told me it wouldn't be pleasant and the nurse let me squeeze her hand and was coaching me to breathe. After those two intense cramps the whole thing was over ...they also give you a heating pad and pillow so I was as comfortable as possible in that situation ...after it was over she did another sono to confirm everything was fine and then the nurse got me some ginger ale. Nobody rushed me out and she came back numerous times to check on me and talk to us. They gave me wipes and a pad to clean myself up and after 10 minutes I felt absolutely fine. I took off work the whole day in case but I honestly could have gone back to work... I had no bleeding AT ALL for the first five days. I actually flew to Florida two days later for family vacation and I was totally fine. The last day of vacation (day 5) I did experience some moderate bleeding and I called the 24 hr number at MIDNIGHT and dr. Fleischman herself called me back to reassure me that it was totally normal... after that it was light spotting and cramping for a couple of days and I now have my period and am getting the IUD inserted later this week... Sorry this was so long but I just wanted to give a detailed account bc I know it was very helpful to me! Ladies please please go here do not listen to the fake reviews on this site... these women are HEAVEN SENT! and I attribute my lack of emotional distress in dealing with this completely to them I seriously owe them my sanity ! read more

WOW what a wonderful group of supportive women that work in this facility !!! You immediately feel good. The Dr. Joan is not only knowledgeable but she gives you information and input on things that suit your needs. We need more places like this that support woman as a community. I'm so happy they are here!!! read more

For something as sensitive as terminating a pregnancy, this is the clinic is the only option. I was treated with the utmost respect and care. The doctor and the nurses are absolutely amazing and sensitive to what is happening. They told me every single step of the process and made me feel extremely comfortable. I can't say enough about my experience at Early Options. It renewed my faith in the medical profession! read more

Early options in Manhattan was by far the best medical experience I've ever had. From the first phone call, the receptionist was so compassionate, and undertanding, and the staff was very helpful and supportive and made you feel very at ease. even under the circumstances. The Dr had by far the best bedside manners of any Dr i've encountered in my life. I left the offices, near tears from the amazing care i received. I dont think I've ever been cared for like this by any medical professional. I would recommend Early options to every woman who needs it. Its a far better option than a D&C, and less pain, less bleeding, and less healing time, and no scarring. Thank you Early Options!! I read more

Thank goodness a friend of mine mentioned this place. I had a missed miscarriage at 9.5 weeks and was completely devastated. They were able to fit me in the same day I called. The vacuum aspiration was SO EASY. It was literally 5 minutes and then I had cramping for 10 minutes. There is no risk of scarring or anything. The doctors are so lovely, and they give you a heating pad. Dr. F gave me a hug on the way out. Honestly, I hope I never have to see them again, but this was as lovely an experience as one could hope for. Worth every penny. Also, it is super private. You go right into your room and never run into another patient. And it is clean. I just love these doctors. So glad we have them in NYC. read more

I'm so glad I found this place and cannot say enough about how fantastic it is. My husband and I got pregnant but learned at 6 weeks there was no heartbeat. We were devastated and our options were to wait until it miscarries naturally or have a procedure done. To try and move on mentally we wanted to procedure done and our doctor referred us here. And let me say I am so happy he did. First off, from the moment you walk in everything is private and discreet. The sign on the door says "Women's Health" and you are the only patient in the entire office. I was scared and sad and everybody was so compassionate and just fantastic. And let me tell you- if you are lucky enough to get Juliette as your nurse she is an angel on earth. The doctor sits with you and explains your options (no pressure to do one vs. the other) and is very transparent. The procedure is fast- 5 minutes and about 2 minutes of pain. I've never had an IUD so cannot compare but it's similar to painful cramps. They talk you through the whole thing and are just fantastic. Immediately after you have some cramps and they give you ginger ale and let you lay there for as long as you need. But 10 minutes later I felt no pain. I know having this done is never fun but if you have to go here. Thank you for helping me and being a great support system! And Juliette you rock and could not have done it without you! read more

I accompanied a friend who had a great experience. Being a doctor myself, I can appreciate Dr. Fleischman's approach with the patient. She made sure to keep my friend at ease, walking through the procedure in enough detail to keep her informed but created no anxiety! The office was very calming and extremely clean. The staff was accommodating and friendly. Overall, I was beyond impressed! I will be recommending this office for its attention to detail and appreciation of patients. read more

Wow.... I never thought it would be possible to be compelled to write a review of my experience given the tumultuous emotion turmoil I was feeling. But the entire experience from stat to finish was worthy of my putting it out to the world. I HIGHLY encourage anyone who is in need to go directly yo Early Options. I cannot say hoe they far surpassed anything I could expected. read more

would highly recommend Made me feel comfortable during a very uncomfortable time read more
