10 Planned Parenthood Locations
The purpose of these listings is for local activists to help people find alternative places to PP, not just for pregnancy, but for STD testing and treatment and other medical services that PP provides. See our home page.
PP locations are current up to December 11, 2024; check PP’s Missouri page for updates on openings or closures. Recently closed: Florissant near St. Louis and South Grand Health Center in St. Louis.
Abortion is banned in Missouri, so all centers are Referral Only – see page on why this is important.
We list Community Health Centers, Rural Health Clinics, and other possible alternatives. These were found through web research, with occasional additions from local activists. Unless noted, they still need to be vetted by local activists as to quality and suitability. Here are action suggestions if they’re suitable or if they need improvement. See the Community Health Center Fact Sheet for Missouri.

We add these because they often offer excellent services to low-income people. Local activists researching PP alternatives can find out if they’re suitable.
University of Missouri Hospitals and Clinics (2.0 miles away). 1 Hospital Drive, Columbia, MO 65212-0001. Tel: (573)882-4141.
Gladstone
(in the Kansas City area)
2900 NE 60th Street, Suite 100, Gladstone, MO 64119.
Referral Only – see page on why this is important.
The Department of Health and Senior Services, Bureau of Ambulatory Care only regulates 5 of the state’s Planned Parenthood facilities, and that does not include this one.
Site visit November, 2018: the building has two suites; PP is the first one as you go into the parking lot, but it’s hard to tell because it has no sign until you get inside the door. The suite in back is a hospice.
I was told verbally that without insurance or Medicaid, the price of STD testing was $120 for the doctor plus $40 to $75 for each test. One could get discounts based on household income, but not there; only in the Independence and Midtown Kansas City locations.
SWOPE HEALTH SERVICES – MAPLE WOODS (2.74 miles away). 3100 NE 83rd Street, Suite 1001, Kansas City, MO 64119-4460. Tel: 816-321- 3230. Limited hours: only Tuesdays.
Site visit November, 2018: Suite 1001 is a large suite that actually holds Tri-County Mental Health. Swope has a small office on the other side, so you have to walk through. Most important – it’s only open on Tuesdays! These features probably make it unsuitable as an alternative to encourage individuals to go to, though it may still be suitable for being on a list. It’s very close to Maple Woods Community College
SWOPE HEALTH SERVICES – NORTHLAND (4.11 miles away). 4443 N. W Gateway, Riverside, MO 64150. Tel: 816-627-2050. See Swope’s web page on women’s health.
Site visit, November 2018: West of PP, in its own building; the parking lot was full and many people in the waiting room. I was verbally told that charges were based on income. A posted sign said labs and injections have walk-in hours of 8-11 and 1-3. Racks of pamphlets had no PP lit.
Independence
(in the Kansas City area)
815 N. Noland Road, Independence, MO 64050.
Referral Only – see page on why this is important.
The Department of Health and Senior Services, Bureau of Ambulatory Care only regulates 5 of the state’s Planned Parenthood facilities, and that does not include this one.
Site visit, November 2018: In a strip mall, and a Rachel’s House pregnancy resource center is right next door.
SWOPE HEALTH SERVICES – INDEPENDENCE (1.63 miles away). 11320 E. Truman Road, Independence, MO 64050-2564. Tel: 816-599-5201. See Swope’s web page on women’s health
Site visit, November 2018: Ample parking; only one person in the waiting room at the time, so not crowded. No pamphlet rack. Enough distance that getting people going into PP to go there instead isn’t likely, but publicizing in the community might help. This is only a check of the physical layout.

SWOPE HEALTH SERVICES – EAST (2.69 miles away). 17844 E. 23rd Street S, Independence, MO 64057-1840. Tel: 816-599-5015.
Joplin
710 Illinois Ave. Joplin, MO 64801.
Referral Only – see page on why this is important.
ACCESS FAMILY CARE – JOPLIN CLINIC (1.58 miles away). 530 S. Maiden Lane, Joplin, MO 64801-3084. Tel: 417-782-6200.
Kansas City
(see also in area: Gladstone, Independence)
1001 Emanuel Cleaver II Blvd. Kansas City, MO 64110.
Referral Only – see page on why this is important.
KC CARE CLINIC – MIDTOWN (1.76 miles away). 3515 Broadway Boulevard, Kansas City, MO 64111-2537. Tel: 816-753-5144.
For KC Care Clinic – Midtown, in September 2019, I made two attempts to make an appointment, where a call-back was supposed to happen. It never did.
If this were a good place – which seems to be a problem from the outset – this would be be about 10 minutes to the west on the #47 bus if coming from the PP center. Both the #47 and the Troost MAX stop nearby.
SWOPE HEALTH – CENTRAL (1.82 miles away). 3801 Blue Parkway, Kansas City, MO 64130-2807. Tel: 816-923-5800.
The phone system nicely told me where in the queue I was, and the wait wasn’t long. I was told that walk-ins were 8am to 10:30 am weekday mornings. I could also have made an appointment, but the soonest available was a month and a half away.
From the PP center, this is a ten-minute ride on the #47 going due east.
KC CARE CLINIC – RESEARCH MEDICAL CAMPUS (2.5 miles away). 2340 E. Meyer Boulevard Building 1, Kansas City, MO 64132. Tel: 816-753-5144.
SAMUEL U. RODGERS HEALTH CENTER – CABOT WESTSIDE (3.27 miles away). 2121 Summit Street, Kansas City, MO 64108-2126. Tel: 816-471-0900.
SAMUEL U. RODGERS HEALTH CENTER – DOWNTOWN CAMPUS (4.32 miles away). 825 Euclid Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64124-2323. Tel: 816-474-4920.
We add these because they often offer excellent services to low-income people. Local activists researching PP alternatives can find out if they’re suitable.
Saint Luke’s Hospital of Kansas City (1.5 miles away). 4401 Wornall Road, Kansas City, MO 64111. Tel: (816)932-5100.
Truman Medical Center-Hospital Hill (3.8 miles away). 2301 Holmes Street, Kansas City, MO 64108-2640. Tel: (816)404-1000.
Truman Medical Center did have an abortion clinic in it back in the 1980s, but seems to have long since given up the practice. The Troost bus and Troost Max bus go right by there, so it’s easy to get to, and is well known locally as a good place for low-income people. The PP center is one block west of the Troost bus, so going from one to the other by bus would be easy.
St. Luke’s is near the Main and Main Max bus lines; it’s closer for those in a car, but would take two buses from the PP center.
Manchester
(in the Saint Louis area)
1 Stonegate Center, Manchester, MO 63088.

The Department of Health and Senior Services, Bureau of Ambulatory Care only regulates 5 of the stpetate’s Planned Parenthood facilities, and that does not include this one.
