Attends hospital births? All Hospitals
I attend births at MDI Hospital, Maine Coast Hospital in Ellsworth and Northern Light Eastern Maine in Bangor. As allied medical staff as an acupuncturist at MDI Hospital I understand how to work effectively within a hospital system and maintain good relationships with hospital providers.

Attends birth center births? Some Birth Centers

Attends home births? Some Home Births
I am the mother of two home-born sons and spent 3 years mentoring with a Certified Professional Midwife attending homebirths. I have comfort and familiarity with out of hospital birth and the midwifery model of care. I am happy to attend most homebirths where a CPM, CM or CNM will be present to provide care.
