Midwifery

Our board-certified nurse-midwives provide personalized care and expertise in a welcoming environment that fosters safety, mutual understanding and respect. Services include care for women of all ages including pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum and gynecological care.  

Our comprehensive birthing care covers both low intervention birth experiences to complex obstetric and operative care.

Our Approach to Care

As of September 1, 2023, our group of Obstetricians and Midwives will be joining together to work collaboratively, providing a comprehensive continuum of care for all our patients throughout their pregnancy. We recognize the value that both options bring to our patients and the positive impact they have on our quality of care and our patients’ experiences. While it may be either a physician or midwife present at the time of delivery, our patients will receive expert guidance and care every step of the way. This change will provide you with the best of both worlds, ensuring that you have the best possible support, resources, and access to care when you need it the most. If you have questions about this change please contact our office at 773-989-6200 or 773-878-7787.
