Welcome your new baby in comfort and surrounded by loving care at the Birthing Suites. We pride ourselves on giving mothers, their babies and families friendly, small-town attention with all the medical services you’d expect at a big city hospital. Your baby will usually be delivered by your family doctor, your baby will room with you, and we’ll make sure that your spouse and family members are comfortable, too! Our staff will respect your birth plan and welcome doula support throughout the birthing process.
