Sports Physicals

No, you do not need insurance to become a patient at 3W. Our exams and most of our services are covered by a service fee, so we don't bill or accept insurance.

All appointments at 3W incur a visit fee that covers the appointment itself, exams, ultrasounds, pregnancy tests, and urine analysis.  

Additional costs depend on the type of appointment and may include: 

• Lab fees, ranging from $0 - $122 

• Veya cycle education, $35 per person per hour 

Because we are a non-profit organization and we do not make money off your reproductive health choices, donations are always welcome but never required to receive our care. 

You can make an appointment request on our website or by calling our clinic at (206) 588-0311. 

Please call us at (206) 588-0311 if you need to reschedule your appointment so that we can match you with the correct provider for your appointment type and accommodate any testing needs you may have.  You will still be charged the appropriate visit fee if you call to cancel or reschedule with less than 24-hour notice.  

To cancel an appointment, please call us or use the text cancellation option provided with your electronic appointment reminder.
