Welcome
The birth of a child is an event to which nothing can compare. Pregnancy, labor, and birth are all powerful transitional times for a pregnant person and their family. It is so important to me that you feel well cared for, safe, comfortable, and free to express your concerns and wishes. During our visits, I’ll take the time to make sure that all of your questions are answered and any concerns are explored. I will offer all of the same tests available at OB/GYN offices, and we will discuss them fully so that you truly understand the meaning and importance of each recommended test. In addition to Western based treatments, I’ll suggest natural remedies when appropriate. Partners and children are encouraged to actively participate in your visits, and if so inclined, may play an integral role during labor and birth.
