Pregnancy and Childbirth
Our physicians provide prenatal care to ensure that you and your unborn child remain healthy throughout pregnancy. During checkups, you can discuss health concerns and your birthing experience preferences with your doctor. Our pregnancy services include:
CenteringPregnancy® for patient-focused prenatal care
At the OBGYN Clinic, we offer the CenteringPregnancy® program. The program brings together women who have due dates around the same time. You receive your prenatal care, support and education in a group setting. Advantages include:
- Convenience: No time spent in the waiting room – just come right in and join the group.
- More time with your doctor: You and your doctor work together in the group discussion and during your private prenatal checkup.
- Support and connection: Create relationships within a community of women in the same stage of pregnancy.
Financial assistance for prenatal and childbirth care
At the OBGYN Clinic, we diagnose and treat Medicaid and uninsured patients of all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds. If you need help paying for prenatal and childbirth care, you may be eligible for financial assistance. Our social workers can help you apply and see if you qualify, based on your income.
Our social workers can also help you overcome obstacles to good health, such as:
- Access to healthy nutrition
- Transportation to and from the clinic
- Funds for postpartum essentials like car seats, breast pumps and formula
