Been trying to get sterilization surgery since I was 16, homeless in Portland. OHSU, Providence, Kaiser, and private clinics said no. UW said yes on my first visit without me begging or making me feel like I was on trial. I got to my appointment in Female Wellness and asked for a tubal and the lady said "okay." I thought she was prompting me to provide more info, but she was granting me the procedure. I never felt shamed about enjoying sex or my dislike for children at all, and in fact was encouraged to maintain healthy habits. The doctor asked me questions and got my medical records and got my insurance to cover that visit, the pre-op, the procedure, and the post-op.
Thank you, Dr. Unger. Thank you thank you thank you so very much.
