Women’s health
 

It is 2019 and for some reason we are still arguing over whether or not to hold women’s health clinics to the same patient safety requirements as other outpatient surgery facilities. If we truly cared about women’s health in Virginia, this would not be an issue. Keep women safe by keeping the health and safety standards the same across the board, regardless of what type of procedure the clinic performs.
