Megan had severe complications after the birth of her second child.
Listening closely, healing deeply.
“They were attentive. They answered all my questions. I developed relationships with nurses and doctors that I saw throughout both pregnancies.”
– Megan, patient, St. Peter's Hospital

Obstetrics program:
If you’d like a medical doctor to deliver your baby, our obstetricians are highly trained over many years to detect problems, control pain during labor and manage issues with a variety of interventions. They deliver newborns vaginally, by cesarean section (C-section) or by trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC).
Midwifery Model of Care:
For those choosing midwifery care, our skilled midwives work with you to create an active, collaborative experience that’s centered around trust, communication and a natural approach to birth.
Care you can count on.
We take your health seriously: our achievements show we’re dedicated to giving you the best-possible care.
