About

FPA Women's Health on Chula Vista's Third Avenue operates as part of the largest independent family planning service network in the United States, providing reproductive and gynecologic care from 1161 Third Avenue since the organization's founding in 1969. The clinic's full-scope model encompasses cervical cancer screening, colposcopy, IUD placement (Mirena, Kyleena, and Paragard), Nexplanon implant insertion, and both medication and procedural pregnancy termination — services that coordinate with preventive dental referrals at Chula Vista Dental Care for prenatal patients whose hormonal changes elevate periodontal disease risk. National Abortion Federation membership establishes clinical and safety standards for the surgical suite. HIV and STI screening uses nucleic acid amplification testing, and telehealth prescribing extends emergency contraception and birth control pill access beyond the physical clinic, with behavioral health referrals routing to LifeStance Therapists & Psychiatrists Chula Vista for peripartum and post-procedural mental health support. The facility performs in-clinic surgical procedures under IV sedation with continuous pulse oximetry, blood pressure, and cardiac monitoring.
