Birth Stories
Garrison Women's Health patients share their birth stories in their own words
-Dr. Janet Perkins, Baby Brogan and Jordan
“Everyone at Garrison Women’s Health was really friendly. I really liked all the staff here. I had a really great birth experience with Dr. Perkins!” - Jordan and Baby Brogan
Kelly with her five children! “I’ve had a really amazing experience with Garrison Women’s Health Center and the incredible women who work there! I’ve given birth to five babies with Garrison!
Candace Delisio was supportive, wonderful, and helped me through my first birth. My second birth was fast and furious. Candace was there to help me again and she informed me I would have a baby before the anesthesiologist arrived! Shelby was 9 lb, 11oz and Candace caught her like a pro baseball player! My third daughter, Tia, arrived two years later and this time we decided to try something different and have a water birth. Molly was there this time to help me through the experience. She was calm, instructive and helped me push through the different sensations of being in water.
Dr. Bertram assured me that I could have a vaginal birth with my twin boys even though Chad was presenting breech. I was very nervous and scared during the process and she kept telling me that I could do it! I couldn’t believe that a breech delivery could be so simple. Drake came out 17 minutes later.
I now have completed my family with 3 girls and two boys and I can’t tell you what an amazing life experience it has been. Thanks to all the nurses, midwives and doctors at Garrison…. I couldn’t have done it without all of you!” ~Kelly A.
"I’ve been a patient at GWHC for over 25 years. Speaking as someone who has spent her whole life in the medical field, I have found the very best Obstetric care at Garrison Women's Health Center. As a mother, I worked to ensure my two daughters benefited from the same quality of care. Our family has experienced normal and high risk pregnancies, normal deliveries and a c-section. I’m convinced that had it not been for the expert prenatal care my girls received I may not have the five healthy, beautiful grandchildren I enjoy today.
The on-site testing and the affiliation with a hospital that has a level II nursery is absolutely necessary in the decision making process. Starting with the reception desk you can sense the professionalism present in this office. The nursing staff, midwives and physicians are second to none.
My firm belief is that every OB-GYN office should be modeled after Garrison Women's Health Center. Without hesitation I would recommend this practice to anyone.” - Betty C.
