Our Labor & Delivery (L&D) program prides itself on offering personalized care from start to finish. You will stay in the beautiful, updated OB suites for labor, delivery, and recovery – no moving rooms after baby is born. Each room has a private bath with a jetted tub to use while in labor and during recovery. A squat bar, labor ball, and peanut ball are available for various positioning during labor. We make sure you and baby are as safe as possible during your stay with an updated central monitoring system and all the most up-to-date equipment, including wireless, waterproof monitors for during labor and a cart specifically for postpartum hemorrhages.

We staff a certified lactation consultant to assist with any breastfeeding needs.
Your OB nurses come to all your appointments starting at 28 weeks to provide education and so you get to know them and will comfortable and familiar with them during delivery. Our OB staff is on call 24/7 with a specific number you can call with any questions or concerns.
