Having a baby is a special experience and journey for which we provide compassionate care, information, and support.
- Our Nurse-Midwife Service has provided care to women and their families since 1983.
- Our midwives are experts at pregnancy and childbirth.
- We work with couples to transition into becoming a family, and our guiding principle is that birth is a normal process.
Our obstetric services
- Obstetricians, nurse-midwives, nurse and family practitioners in multiple locations who practice a range of services to meet your choices and specific needs for care
- A high risk pregnancy (Maternal Fetal Medicine) team
- Reproductive Genetics designed to determine if you are at higher risk for a baby with certain health concerns or disabilities
- Classes and support for pregnancy and post-partum
- Ultrasounds — We provide your ultrasounds in the safest way possible for you, your baby, and our staff. Due to COVID-19, we allow one adult companion to go with you in the room for your ultrasound. The only other person in the room with you is the expert doing the ultrasound (the sonographer).
