Personalized and Holistic Approach

emotional, and mental well-being. They are trained to support a variety
of birth preferences and are dedicated to making your birth experience
as positive and empowering as possible.
High-Risk Pregnancy Care
While you may deliver with a midwife if it is medically appropriate, if
you become high-risk during pregnancy or delivery, your care may be transferred
to one of our experienced obstetricians to ensure the best outcomes for
you and your baby. Stafford Hospital also partners with Children’s
National to provide world-class neonatology care at our
Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
