CLINIC: Thank you for calling Planned Parenthood. This is Shariva (sp). How can I help you?

CALLER: Hi. Yeah. I was wondering if you guys do abortions there.

CLINIC: No, we don’t. We do it at our downtown Baltimore office and Annapolis. Would you like that number?

CALLER: Yeah.

CLINIC: Downtown Baltimore number is 410-576-1414.

CALLER: Okay.

CLINIC: And the Annapolis is 410-269-1020.

CALLER: All right. Well, I was actually — like do you know if there’s an age limit to have an abortion? Like I’ll be 14 in March.

CLINIC: I think you have to sign some type of consent. I’m not for sure. So that’s why you would need to call down there and they can tell you.

CALLER: Okay. Well, like it’s just my friend told me that you guys have to tell about my boyfriend too. Like he’ll be — he’s 22, and we’re planning on getting married and everything, but you guys can’t tell my parents at all because they absolutely hate him. They just think he’s too old for me.

CLINIC: Okay. Well, like I said, and just explain your situation to them down there because they are the ones that, you know, handle that.

CALLER: Well, I was actually wondering if I could take a pregnancy test. Like she said to call you guys.

CLINIC: Okay. Well, you can do a walk-in for that.

CALLER: Okay.

CLINIC: You can come in any time. We’re open until 4:00 today.

CALLER: Would it be all right if my boyfriend brings me?

CLINIC: Yeah, it’s fine.

CALLER: Okay, and you guys wouldn’t have to tell anybody about taking a pregnancy test?

CLINIC: No. All your information is confidential.

CALLER: Okay.

CLINIC: Okay?

CALLER: Well, if after the pregnancy test if I ended up not being pregnant, do you guys do birth control there?

CLINIC: Yes, we do.

CALLER: And you wouldn’t have to tell anybody about that either?

CLINIC: No. All your information is confidential.

CALLER: Okay. Okay, thanks.

CLINIC: Sure.

CALLER: Bye.

CLINIC: Bye bye.
