At Alternatives of Tampa, we make Connections. Every day we teach women to connect their head and heart while making decisions about pregnancy and abortion. We join with patients in a active health care partnership. We continually build bridges to the broader health care community. Your connection to Alternatives shows how much you care about quality and personal attention for your patients, clients and loved ones.
Alternatives remains the first woman owned abortion facility in the Bay Area.
Margaret Gifford founded Alternatives in 1979 to bring her own style and commitment to the delivery of abortion services. With her leadership, Alternatives focuses on counseling and emotional nurturing in equal measure to medical quality. Margaret combines her nursing and administrative experience to create a clinic atmosphere that is more like a private office. Women are not hurried, their individual concerns are addressed, and privacy is assured. Staff at Alternatives are as dedicated as their founder.
