We delivered our beautiful baby girl in December 2023 and LOVED our team on delivery day. We never felt pressured to make a decision while at the hospital by the doctor (Dr. Jenkins) who delivered our baby. I will say that there are a few doctors who we have crossed paths with as being pushier - ones who encouraged induction when we wanted everything to progress naturally - but we felt lucky to get the doctor we wanted. I really love the midwife, Whitney Suckstorf, she did such a lovely job visiting during my postpartum stay. I also want to shoutout all of the amazing nurses who went above and beyond. I cannot express how thankful I am for each and every single one of them. Some names that stick out - Jenna, for keeping us on our birth plan and passing on information to the nurses later in the day about low/no intervention. Lisa, for being such a bubbly personality every time coming into my room and making me feel so safe. Sandra, for helping me in the final moments before meeting our baby for the first time. Sandra was amazing at helping me get into positions to encourage progression, encouraged me nonstop, and pushed me to get through. I cannot say enough good things about everything and everyone. Our initial check-in nurse was amazing too - I cannot remember her name, but she helped calm us down when we came in. Even though we had a few bumps with a couple doctors, I loved my experience here. Our nurses were especially outstanding in every moment!~Cassidy Murray
