The Birthplace
Comfort, Advanced Care and Comprehensive Services
The Birthplace at Baptist provides the comfort and convenience of private Labor-Delivery-Recovery Rooms along with up-to-date technology and experienced nurses with training in fetal heart monitoring.
Most babies are born without complications for mother or baby. Should difficulties arise, however, you and your baby will have access to the full services of Baptist's comprehensive medical facilities. C-Section Delivery Rooms are immediately accessible from the regular Labor-Delivery-Recovery rooms in case of an emergency or a difficult delivery. Experienced physicians in more than 25 specialties and sub-specialties serve on the hospital staff. Neonatal, pediatric, and adult intensive care units located in the hospital offer additional medical resources should they be required.
Board-Certified Neonatologists
All babies at The Birthplace are cared for by physicians of The Newborn Associates: John E. Rawson, MD; David M. Temple, MD; Kenny K. Robbins, MD; C. Jason Miller, MD; Jack D. Owens, MD; Mitzi G. Ferguson, MD; David F. Wender, MD; Christinia Glick, MD; and Danny B. McCaughan, MD. These board-certified neonatologists are pediatricians with specialized training and expertise in the care of newborns. Your baby will be examined by one of our neonatologists shortly after birth and then daily. During your hospital stay, a neonatologist will be available at all times should a complication develop with your baby.
