Welcome to the Family Birth Center!

Birth CenterWe are located on the second floor of the Gerber Memorial Health Services Family Center addition. This state-of-the-art facility offers modern birthing suites where your family can participate in the birthing experience and lovingly welcome your new baby into your lives. The Family Birth Center provides a setting where families can labor, deliver and recover within one birthing room - a birthing room where the OB staff has access to any medical equipment that might be needed for the birth. Our moms enjoy the attention of a caring staff and can relax in our soothing jet tubs. We take care of dad, too. He is welcome to stay all night, at no charge.
