LivingWell Medical Clinic History
LivingWell Medical Clinic began operation in April of 1985. The clinic
was founded by a coalition of businessmen and doctors who recognized
the need for practical help and medical care for women in Orange County
facing unplanned pregnancies. At that time, there were over 50 facilities
offering abortion services and NO abortion alternative medical services.
Over the past 16 years we have assisted over 58,000 women facing unplanned
pregnancies and have helped to give life to over 14, 000 babies. Today
we have 6 clinics in Orange and Los Angeles counties.
Our mission is to provide alternative services and practical solutions
to each woman facing an unplanned pregnancy, in order to allow her to
make a rational decision without the undue pressure of her other circumstances.
Our emphasis is on helping the woman as well as preserving the life
of the unborn child. We also provide post-abortion counseling and support
for the recovery of women facing post-abortion trauma. Finally, we provide
community and church training service for the preventing of unplanned
pregnancy through outreach to local churches and schools. Our objective
is to see these services made available first to every woman in Orange
County and then to implement a national strategy.
