“ It is one of the most important decisions you will make, where to deliver your baby. Touro has a proven legacy of where babies come from.”

When Kristy found out she was pregnant, her and her husband decided they wanted their baby's gender to be a surprise. During her pregnancy, they decided on a girl name and a boy name, but still didn't want to know the gender until the baby was born. One of Kristy's favorite memories delivering at Touro was in January 2015, when it came time for her to deliver her baby, her doctor looked at her and said "It's a Karissa!"
