There are so many fallacies about Planned Parenthood and what they actually do. You need to know that Planned Parenthood does NOT provide ANY breast cancer diagnostic or treatment services. Planned Parenthood is a “level one breast cancer service center.” That means they are only allowed to perform manual breast exams. No breast ultrasounds. No breast biopsies. No mammograms. Only manual exams…by mid level clinicians with no physician on site.
Komen gave a $700,000 grant to Planned Parenthood last year…stating it was for breast cancer treatment. But that is a blatant lie. Planned Parenthood doesn’t PROVIDE any breast cancer treatment services. The cash grants received from Komen go straight into Planned Parenthood’s general operating fund. There is no “earmark.” Know where your money is going. Stay away from Komen.
