What parents say

Where do I even start? From beginning to end the nurses and doctors were amazing! The communication was unprecedented and the care was extremely wonderful. I had a very difficult labor that ended with an unscheduled but non-emergent c-section, the pain I felt before that was unbearable.

The Birthing Center staff is great. Incredibly thorough, compassionate and professional. They always make my wife feel comfortable and relaxed (as much as one can be during labor). We've had three babies here. - Tim and Missy Daily Vlogs (YouTube)

I wish I could give 5 stars. I had a scheduled C-section on January 14th. The admission process was smooth. It was originally scheduled for 9:30 AM but was postponed to around 12 PM due to emergencies. The reason for giving 4 stars is the surgery experience.

Giving birth at Strong was such a great experience. The staff were absolutely incredible. The facilities and rooms were great. Every nurse that was assigned to our room was so caring and helpful. I was pregnant with my first and ended up having an unplanned C section.
