PP: Now has people saying they get treatment for anxiety, depression and digestive issues!!

Cuts to family-planning funds could affect 27,000 Montanans...(scare headline)

 Billings Gazette.com runs puff piece propping up PP and solicits testimonials from clients?? Gosh along with mammograms (wink-not really) you can use them for digestive problems, anxiety and depression!! But if you go to the website and read closely they refer you to your PCP for treatment following any preliminary screening shows need for treatment. Then they say if you don't have insurance or cash you may qualify for the state funded Wonder if they set broken bones? All of these treatments can be obtained by the county health dept. and that is where most referrals are sent. As Abby Johnson said they want to increase foot traffic so that if you have an unplanned pregnancy, you will come for an abortion and that is the real profit center.
"Ashley Stevick said Planned Parenthood is unfairly targeted because of its abortion services. The organization has been the 26-year-old Bozeman woman's primary health care provider for 13 years. She has been treated for anxiety, depression and digestive issues in addition to receiving contraception. She turned to the organization when she was without insurance and continued even after she got an insurance plan."
  Gosh, since she was 13 years old!

If she was sexually active at 13 years old Susie, it was a good thing PP was there to provide her with contraception. Or would you rather she got pregnant?

For many women, PP IS their only helth care provider so not surprising they would get treatment for other issues while there. I once got a perscription for cold sore medication from my dentist. Gosh!!!!
