Where to find Birth Story Obstetrics

What parents say

In 2022, I found myself in a situation I wasn’t prepared for: fifty hours of labor in, and only 5cm dilated. Adapting quickly, we decided to transport from the birthing center to Peace Health. One epidural later, and 3 hours of pushing with little progress, I was gifted with Dr. Anna Dowling’s presence.

★★★★★ — Emma, 2025-03

If you want top-notch care - with a blend of midwife + doctor, Dr. Dowling is your person. When I found out I was pregnant with twins there was no other place to go for high-risk care besides PH (or so I thought).

★★★★★ — Jasmin, 2024-10

I am thankful for all that Anna Dowling has done for me and my family. I contacted her early in my pregnancy feeling anxious, excited, and hopeful for a VBAC. I had several reasons why a repeat C-section would be preferable, but Anna seemed just as hopeful as I was to achieve a successful VBAC.

★★★★★ — Crystal, 2024-06

Dr. Dowling is the best of the best! Not only did we receive care from an excellent, knowledgeable, experienced OB (and benefit from the peace of mind that comes with that!
