Midwifery

Certified midwives for pregnancy, birth and beyond

The team at St. Luke's Obstetrics & Gynecology Associates is committed to putting our patients first, which is why we offer more choices for your care. At St. Luke’s, you can choose a certified nurse midwife as your women’s healthcare provider

What is a certified nurse midwife?

A certified nurse midwife is an advanced practice nurse who specializes in women’s health.

Do midwives only help with delivering babies?

Midwives at St. Luke’s have a much broader scope than just helping with pregnancies. A certified nurse midwife completes the broadest level of training, equipping them to offer full-scope care throughout a woman’s life, from her first period through menopause and beyond. This includes:

  • Annual well-women exams including Pap smears, breast and pelvic exams
  • Preconception and infertility counseling
  • Family planning and conception
  • Childbirth education and preparation
  • Osteoporosis risk assessment and reduction
  • Menopause management (nutrition, exercise, hormone and alternative therapies)
  • PMS/PMDD
  • Sexual health management
  • Sexually transmitted infections (STI) screening and counseling

What are the benefits of choosing a midwife as a provider?

Midwives favor a more natural, holistic approach to health care.

Is St. Luke’s doula friendly?

We certainly are. We are so supportive of moms benefiting from a doula that we offer the Plus One Doula Program. This program offers financial assistance to parents, providing partial or full scholarships for hiring a doula.
