A member asked:

Is it safe to have an iud insertion in a local health centers or is it much advisable to have it in a private hospitals?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Either.: There is nothing about a hospital that inherently makes the care better. Go with the provider you know and trust in a location that is comfortable.
