Obstetrics

We offer complete maternity care from preconception through postpartum. Our treatment emphasizes pregnancy and birth as a healthy, normal process. We are proud of our very low Cesarean-section rate. Women can choose their own care provider from the four certified nurse-midwives and two OB/GYN physicians. We provide primary care enabling patients to (usually) have their chosen provider attend their birth.

We have the only freestanding birth center in the greater Phoenix area. We are nationally accredited by the Commission for Accreditation of Freestanding Birth Centers. We also attend births at three local hospitals, Phoenix Baptist Hospital and Medical Center, John C. Lincoln Hospital-North Mountain, and St. Joseph's Hospital & Medical Center.

Preconception counseling is an important part of our program. The healthiest pregnancies begin with a visit that offers advice on how to minimize risks and achieve optimal health before pregnancy, as well as screening for potential problems.

Research has shown us evidence that supplementing a woman's diet before she becomes pregnant can significantly reduce the risk of serious birth defects.
