Free, Confidential Pregnancy Testing

WMed Health Obstetrics and Gynecology offers free, confidential pregnancy testing on a walk-in basis. Testing is available from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday at WMed Health’s OB/GYN clinic at 1000 Oakland Drive. Patients should check in at the OB/GYN clinic on the first floor. The test takes minutes, and women will leave WMed Health’s clinics with information and resources whether the pregnancy test is positive or negative. All testing is confidential and will not be labeled in the patient’s chart as pregnancy testing. Patients will receive a paper confirming pregnancy as proof.
