Where to find Duke Birthing Center
What parents say
My wife's water broke at 6:30 am, and our baby was breech. We arrived at Duke at 8:00 am because we were coming from Raleigh, and ran into rush hour traffic. Our daughter was born at 8:30 am, butt first.
I had a scheduled induction at the birthing center here. Overrall great experience! Nurses were very attentive, informative, and advocated for me whenever necessary or when certain doctors tried to derail my birth experience.
Our baby unexpectedly came a few days early, and we arrived around 5am on a weekend day. Just before going back to the O.R., pretty much everyone's shift was changing (7am). I have 2 main points for writing this review. 1) Communication is key.
I just had my first child here couple days ago and have to say this was an AMAZING experience . Throughout my pregnancy I received care from dukes women health primarily brier creek and loved all my doctors especially Dr. Meredith Hoover who eased all my worries and overthinking and over googling lol .
