But the clinic performed no abortions today and saw only a few patients, said the director, Marilynn Buckham.

Less than 1 percent of the 4,000 clinics actually perform abortions, and they do not use Title X funds for the procedures, he said.

The clinic, one of the few in China that focuses on reproductive health for single women, performed 65 abortions in March.

The clinic performs abortions only up to the 19th week of pregnancy.

Besides offering consultations, the clinic performs research studies.

The clinic performs 8,500 abortions a year, about half of all abortions in the state, and reduces its fees for women with low incomes.

In one year, the clinic had performed 171 bypasses.

The clinic, staffed by a doctor and a nurse, performs many routine tests.

She has said previously that the clinic performs about 15,000 abortions a year and has gross annual revenue of $10 million.

Few clinics perform abortions or offer birth control other than condoms.
