Babies don't care if they have a "spa birthing experience". All they want is to land safely in mom's arms. So that and the safety of the mom-to-be are what we focus on. In fact, we're the only area maternity program that's participated in Harvard team training to increase obstetric patient safety.
At Elmhurst Memorial Hospital, we do whatever it takes to bring you and your baby every possible medical advantage. For starters, your primary OB physician has a whole team behind him/her, including other doctors and our amazing nurses — all who take the time to get to know you and your baby. More heads. Better care. It's a smarter approach to medicine. And smart is so "in".
