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.
