Choosing who will deliver your baby is an important decision. You’re entrusting a provider with the care of two people – you and your child – and forging a relationship that will grow with your family.
At Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH), we offer personalized, family-friendly obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) care for mothers-to-be, from preconception and prenatal visits to labor, delivery and postpartum care. We provide patient-focused services for normal and high-risk pregnancies, including those affected by maternal medical conditions. Depending on your needs and those of your baby, your care team will be led by a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist or a certified nurse-midwife. Our OB/GYN specialists work in partnership with parents to ensure a safe birth plan that meets personal preferences.
Our experienced are specially trained to provide medical and surgical care. They are affiliated with Harvard Medical School where they educate the next generation of obstetric physicians. Many of our OB/GYN doctors are bilingual and have advanced training in specialty areas. They collaborate with experts in maternal-fetal medicine, genetics, reproductive medicine and other specialties throughout BWH.
Our nurse-midwives are certified by the American College of Nurse-Midwives and licensed by the state of Massachusetts. They are skilled at providing obstetric and newborn care, family planning and wellness education. A group of women from varied backgrounds, our nurse-midwives work closely with obstetricians if complications occur during pregnancy, labor or delivery. The Midwifery Group at BWH is the oldest hospital-based midwifery practice in Massachusetts.
Obstetrics and gynecology physicians and nurse midwives provide services at multiple locations in Boston and surrounding communities. Babies are delivered at the state-of-the-art Center for Women and Newborns at the Mary Horrigan Connors Center for Women’s Health.
