After more than a decade under its current ownership — and years of prior operation under a different name — the only surgical abortion provider in Greensboro, North Carolina, closed its doors on April 30, prompting responses from area pro-life ministries.
The Greensboro abortion clinic began operating under the name A Woman’s Choice in 2015, according to North Carolina incorporation records. Other published information suggest that abortions were provided at the site under a previous name and ownership dating back to the 1990s or early 2000s, although the dates of those earlier operations are not consistently documented in public findings.

A Woman’s Choice operates a regional network of abortion clinics in cities across the Southeast, primarily in North Carolina, Florida and Virginia. The closure of the Greensboro clinic marks a shift in local abortion access and drew responses from leaders from a pro-life ministry and a local pregnancy resource center.
Officials with Love Life, a Charlotte-based pro-life ministry that has been active in the Triad since 2018, described the closure as significant while emphasizing continued efforts in the region.
“We just rejoice that it is no longer (there),” said Dustin Wilson, Love Life’s city director for Greensboro and Winston-Salem. “We just pray that more of these will close.”
