Marquette Medical Urgent Care became the first U.S. urgent care clinic to offer medication abortions, expanding access in rural Michigan.
After the closure of the Planned Parenthood clinic in Marquette, Michigan, in April, Dr. Viktoria Koskenoja and Dr. Shawn Brown launched medication abortion services at Marquette Medical Urgent Care, making it the only urgent care clinic in the U.S. known to offer the service.
The clinic serves patients from five counties, providing in-person care up to 11 weeks pregnant, with a focus on accessibility and stigma reduction through a welcoming environment.
Funding from grants supports efforts to replicate the model nationally, aiming to integrate abortion care into routine healthcare in rural areas where access is limited.
