ok well, yanno... I'm speaking as someone who has been a Planned Parenthood patient, and you aren't interested, which probably tells us everything we need to know. But I'll explain this one more time. I show up and say yanno, just got here, haven't made contact with the coumadin clinic, but I have run out of this drug which keeps me from developing dangerous blood clots. Can you write me a prescription and send me over to the lab to get the blood test that goes with the Rx? So they say sure and we have a short discussion about other routine well-patient work I might also have been deferring. Mammograms came up, as a matter of fact. This would have been like the lab, something they referred me to elsewhere. I think they subsidize the referrals. The lab test was about $20 vs $85 when I just went to the hospital and said I need this. And yes, breast cancer, like other cancer, is less likely in a twenty-something, but a) that's not the only group PP serves, based on waiting-room observation, and b)a twenty-something who's noticed a lump in her breast absolutely needs to have it checked out. So if you are trying to say Komen was right to do this because the funding was unnecessary to begin with, you're full of it, not that this is a surprise.
And I do not recall complaining about Planned Parenthood doctors.
