Our Team
Obstetricians
All
of our obstetricians are board-certified. Because Sequoia is not a
teaching hospital, there are no interns or residents-only highly
experienced physicians. In about 90% of cases, the doctor who cared
for you during your pregnancy will deliver your baby.
Pediatricians
Your pediatrician will visit you and your baby each day.
Neonatologists
A full time board-certified neonatologist, backed by five
board-certified/eligible pediatricians is available to provide
24-hour care to babies.
Anesthesiologists
Anesthesia coverage is available 24 hours every day.
Nursing
Staff
Nursing experience plays a major role in the Birth Center. Our
nurses see each woman as an individual and tailor her care to her
needs and the birth plan she has chosen.
We know, for example, that having a second
baby is different from, but no less important than, having your
first baby. We know when a few extra words of encouragement can
help and when you want to be left alone. And we know that family
wishes should come first throughout this important day in the life
of you and your baby. Each nurse is also trained in fetal
monitoring and neonatal resuscitation.
