What is our strategy? We prioritize respecting patient autonomy, practicing patience, supporting doulas, offering water birth options, and promoting mobility during labor. Our exceptional team comprises OBs, nurses, pediatricians, and midwives, with midwives delivering over half of the babies and playing an integral role in leadership and culture of patient care on our unit.
