Lisa Jongewaard, the lead clinician for the San Francisco Planned Parenthood clinic, says that when the Yona team showed her a prototype of the new speculum she was ecstatic. Not only is it more patient-friendly, but Jongewaard says that there are a lot of benefits for the health provider as well. In her daily practice, she says that there is a certain way she has to hold the speculum in order not to pinch the patient’s labia. After experimenting with Yona’s speculum prototype though, Jongewaard thinks it would be almost impossible to pinch a patient’s labia.
