Labor and Delivery
Labor & delivery is giving birth – with you in mind
Where you deliver your baby matters. Our family birthing centers are designed with a focus on your comfort, offering peaceful environments that are staffed by OB/GYNs, nurses, and patient care technicians. Interested in other birthing options? West Jefferson Medical Center and Touro offer midwifes or doulas to customize your birthing experience.
