📣 Important update regarding OB Services
Beginning Monday, July 14, 2025, Dr. Hyler and Associates will no longer provide OB services at Baptist Clay and will transition their deliveries to other hospitals. We thank the Dr. Hyler Group for their support in expanding our OB program at Baptist Clay, and we look forward to working with them to ensure a smooth transition for their patients. If you are a patient with their practice and have questions, please contact their office directly at 904.264.1628.
Baptist Clay takes pride in providing high-quality care in a safe and compassionate environment for all our patients. We remain dedicated to delivering OB services in the Clay community, including a Level 2 NICU, which offers a specialized nursery ideal for moderate preterm infants and newborns requiring close monitoring after birth.
In 2024, we proudly welcomed more than 1,350 babies—and we’re here to continue supporting moms and growing families with expert care in a warm and friendly environment.
💙 If you're looking for an OB provider, including those still delivering at Baptist Clay, we’re happy to help. Call 904.202.4YOU or visit go.baptistjax.com/44HANRl.
Edited to add: We’ve seen some recent comments about C-section rates at our hospital and want to provide accurate information. According to the latest data from The Leapfrog Group (which is an independent national nonprofit that rates hospitals based on evidence-based safety and quality measures), Baptist Clay’s Cesarean section rate is 21.3%, which is the lowest in Clay County.
