Surgical Abortion: Safe, Effective, and Supportive

At VAG Clinic, we offer both aspiration abortion (usually up to 17 weeks) and dilation and evacuation (D&E) for pregnancies between 18 and 25 weeks. If you are unsure how far along you are, our pregnancy calculator can help you estimate your gestational age before your visit.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Our care team will guide you through every step of the process, including a thorough pre-procedure assessment, options counseling, and aftercare instructions.
