What parents say

What a wonderful hospital staff! I had a medicine free birth and the nurses were so wonderful! My labor nurse Jill C. was very encouraging and worked along side my doula beautifully. My recovery nurses were all amazing but Michelle W. went above and beyond.

★★★★★ — Chelsea, 2020-12

I had a wonderful birth experience with Dr. Whitlock and the amazing nursing staff. I especially want to thank nurse Marissa, who cared for me for 2 days and was also there during my delivery. Her support and kindness made such a difference, and I’ll always be grateful for her calm presence.

★★★★★ — Alexandra, 2025-05

Just want to say this was possibly the best experience I could of had with a scheduled induction. Staff was amazing and constantly made sure I was comfortable during the process. Dr. Sledge has been my OB the entire time, and also was there for my delivery. The absolute biggest shout out to the nurses!!!!
