Center for
Reproductive Health |
 Home Sweet Home Greetings!
After 35 years in the same location, the Memphis Center for Reproductive Health has a beautiful new home!
Our renovated medical center at 1726 Poplar Avenue includes a spacious patient waiting room, two exam rooms, laboratory, ultrasound room, recovery suite, nurses' station, three patient education rooms, administrative offices and a conference room. We now have on-site parking and are located on a major MATA bus route, making our health services more accessible and convenient. Can you tell we're proud and excited?
And we are bringing back our wildly successful "buy one get one FREE" Wellness Check-up Special. If you get a Wellness exam at MCRH this summer you'll receive a coupon good for a free check-up for someone you love. Look for our postcards around town, or check out the coupon at the bottom of this email.
We'll be announcing our Grand Opening later in the summer, but in the meantime we love giving tours. Reply to this email or call us at 901-274-3550, ext. 105, to arrange one.
As always, thanks so much for your support.
1726 Poplar Ave. - Our new home! |

Helping Women Control Their Own Reproductive Lives
 MCRH Offers ART for All
This month Memphis Center for Reproductive Health begins taking appointments for Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART). These services can assist women who want to have a baby but are having difficulty getting pregnant. ART will be available to all women regardless of their marital status or sexual orientation.
"We're so happy to offer these new services to our patients," says Nikole Gettings, MCRH's Clinical Services Coordinator. "Our mission is about giving women control of their reproductive lives and health. And we found that some local infertility specialists refused to assist women if they were single, or in same-sex relationships. We don't think that is a decision that a doctor or hospital should make for someone. We believe that every woman deserves to make her own reproductive decisions."
For more information on MCRH's ART services email clinical@mcrh-tn.org, or call 901-274-3550, ext. 113. |

Free Walk-In HIV Testing
Mon. June 28, 10 - 4 p.m.
In support of National HIV Testing Day
Tuesdays & Thursdays
11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m
On average, every 9 ½ minutes someone in the US is infected with HIV. One in four individuals infected with HIV do not know their status.
The best way to combat these statistics is to get tested every year.
Testing at MCRH is free and confidential using the OraQuick ADVANCE Rapid HIV-1 and HIV-2 Antibody Test. Results will be available to patients in 20 minutes.
Take the test; take control of your sexual health!
For more information on our Parallel Paths Project, linking HIV Testing and Education with reproductive health, call 274-3550, ext. 115, or visit our website. |
