Mission: The mission of LifeChoices Family Medical is to transform healthcare by providing natural, holistic and life affirming medical care. We have established a healthcare clinic for women and families, specializing in gynecology and obstetrics, pediatrics and primary care. Our goal is to provide the healthiest options for achieving wellness by caring for the mind, body and spirit, and promoting restorative reproductive medicine. We provide services through medical physicians and nurse practitioners, in a comprehensive care model that honors the unique beauty of every person by promoting dignity of life. Our focus has been on providing exceptional healthcare regardless of one’s ability to pay. Our purpose is to restore the dignity and beauty of the human person. Our passion is to provide healthcare and knowledge to women and families who are uninsured, underinsured, and the abortion vulnerable. We are driven to help women reverse the effects of a chemical abortion, saving their babies. We also partner with organizations who help women get out of human trafficking, the adult entertainment business and abortion clinic workers.

Results: If LifeChoices Family Medical did not exist: ●Women seeking the abortion pill reversal medical protocol, to save their babies, would not be available in Hillsborough and Pasco Counties. ●Abortion vulnerable women would not have a prolife medical provider who will encourage life through all 3 trimesters. ●Pregnancy resource centers would not have a prolife medical practice to refer their abortion minded clients for prenatal care assuring that they would be supported throughout all of her pregnancy. ●Uninsured women would not be able to receive preventative care, where our providers can diagnose cancers, as well as other conditions, in the earliest stages. ●Teen girls would not be given a natural, healthy alternative to being put on birth control for heavy periods, cramps, and other onset issues. ●Couples would not have a medical practice to go for natural family/fertility-based awareness method counseling. ●Couples experiencing infertility issues would not have a holistic approach using Creighton FertilityCare management and NaProTECHNOLOGY vs. doing in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intrauterine insemination (IUI). ●Pregnant women and their families would not have the continuity of care from coming here as their obstetrician, to being their pediatrician, and to being their primary care provider. ●New moms experiencing postpartum depression would not have received immediate medical care without us intervening at their baby’s pediatric visits. ●Women and couples experiencing miscarriages or early infant loss would not have a support system to help them heal. ●Women and couples would not have a prolife medical provider who would encourage life regardless of fetal diagnosis.
