Visit a Provider for Prenatal Care

Scheduling regular appointments with your healthcare provider throughout your pregnancy is important to ensure your and your baby's health. Pregnant women should seek regular care to benefit from education on pregnancy and childbirth, counseling, and medical support.

What We Offer

• High-risk pregnancy treatments: You may have a high-risk pregnancy if you had any preexisting health conditions before pregnancy. These include high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, or being HIV positive. To prevent an increased risk of severe outcomes for you or your child, consult your doctor for appropriate treatment options based on your condition.
• Low-risk pregnancy services: A pregnancy that is considered low risk includes being pregnant with only one child. This situation accounts for most pregnancies and is the least likely for complications.
• Prenatal care: This is an umbrella term concerning several checkups from nurses, doctors, or midwives throughout your pregnancy to keep you and your baby healthy. You can monitor your baby's growth through ultrasounds and regular appointments as you get closer to your due date.
• Breech babies: A baby positioned bottom-down instead of head-down late in the pregnancy is known as a breech baby. Your child is not in danger, but this positioning could cause some complications during delivery. An OB-GYN may be able to turn the baby to the head-down position if they are still in the breech position by applying pressure to your abdomen.
• C-sections: This is a procedure to deliver a baby through surgical openings in the abdomen and uterus. A C-section is usually done because a vaginal delivery could harm the baby or mother.
• Midwifery: A professional trained to support and care for women throughout the birthing process is known as a midwife. They can help with a healthy pregnancy and assist you in preparation for a natural birth if you choose.
• Prenatal testing: This form of testing can include genetic testing to detect and determine if any problems with the pregnancy are apparent.
• Natural childbirth: If you prefer to have a natural birth without any medications or pain relievers, it is possible! Midwives are helpful during the process, and they can give resources to assist with preparation.
• Postpartum care: A mother's emotional and physical health can be taxed following childbirth. Postpartum care is essential to monitor your well-being within the first few weeks after delivery.
