Women's health centers provide vital health care service for women in Virginia. The proposed regulations would require expensive and unnecessary changes to existing centers that are currently doing good work. It would likely result in some centers closing. Therefore, many young virginians would be without access to medical care.
For many young women , this is the only medical care they receive. My sister's thyroid cancer was first noticed at one of these centers. At the very least, the changes would increase the cost of care with no medical benefit or reason. This sort of change is unnecessary and detrimental to the health of Virginia's citizens. Please stop it.
