Midwifery
Stillwater Medical Group Midwives know that healthy mothers mean healthy, happy babies and families.
SMG Midwives also know that a healthy lifestyle means taking care of you and your family every day, not just during pregnancy and birth. That’s why our midwives are committed to providing quality healthcare, from birth and beyond.
Making a midwife your primary care provider means your midwife is there for gynecological care, breast exams, heart screenings, and more. You can receive adolescent and midlife care, as well as prenatal and pregnancy care all from the same place, with a midwife you trust.
What is a Midwife?
The word midwife has been used for centuries to describe a woman who is "with women" at birth. A midwife was traditionally an older female in the family or the community. Today, the word indicates a philosophy of care that focuses on the specific needs of women, offers a variety of options, and minimizes unnecessary intervention; and the individuals who hold that title are highly educated professionals who work collaboratively with physicians. Stillwater Medical Group employs four Certified Nurse-Midwives.
