About Us

Welcoming a new baby is an exciting time, and our team is here to support you throughout your pregnancy and after delivery. Our physicians and nurse-midwives offer a gentle and safe approach to care, and will support you in making informed decisions throughout your pregnancy and postpartum period.

When it comes to the big day, our Birth Center pairs state-of-the-art technology with comfortable and peaceful surroundings—cozy, private rooms, handmade quilts, framed Vermont art, and other warm touches help you feel as comfortable as possible.

For most of our pregnant patients, prenatal care starts around 8 weeks. Appointments are usually scheduled for every 4 weeks until 28 weeks, then every 2 weeks until 36 weeks, followed by every week until delivery.
