There are many trained home birth midwives and one hospital midwife that work in Washington and Iron Counties as well as a few natural birth friendly obstetricians. Please contact me for a complete list. Just a reminder that although midwives tend to be more woman friendly there are obstetricians who "act like midwives" as well as midwives who "act like obstetricians".
I always encourage clients to interview as many doulas and care providers as possible. Every personality is different and it is important to find someone that can support you in your choices.
