What parents say

I cannot even give more stars. 10/10 if I could. I am a black, first time mom and was so afraid of all the things you hear about being treated badly or having a high maternal death rate and etc. the ENTIRE staff for my entire stay here made the labor, delivery, and my sons first few days of life unforgettable.

★★★★★ — Shanice, 2023-10

Overall, our experience here was pretty great. Most of the nurses pre-labor were amazing. Shout out to our main nurse because she was absolutely THE BEST and I wish we could have remembered her name because she made us feel super calm in a very stressful time. She was kind and respectful of my privacy.

★★★★☆ — Deborah, 2023-12

2022 update - We delivered our twins at Fairview Southdale. We are very happy with our experience with the delivery (C-section), the post-partum care and newborn care. Our nurses Rachel, Nora and Julie were outstanding.

★★★★★ — Smruti, 2022-03

I recently delivered my baby via C-section at M Health Fairview Southdale in Edina, and the care I received in the maternity ward was nothing short of world-class. Every nurse and staff member I encountered went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable, supported, and well cared for during my stay.
