Scheduling Note: When scheduling with Planned Parenthood, Andy (he/him) says, “I have been receiving care with Planned Parenthood and they require in-person appointments once a year to continue care. So I would recommend against telehealth appointments because I don’t want other folks to get charged over $200 for 1 month of hormones and still have to pay the same amount for an in person appointment the next month.”
