Our Philosophy
At Associates In Women’s Health, we believe in the positive powers of presence and listening. We recognize that a woman’s needs must be addressed within the context of her life. Thus, we strive to integrate body, mind and spirit into the care we provide. We desire to help each woman meet her highest level of health and well-being. We value family and social support and we welcome those who choose to participate in women’s health care. By choosing a midwife to assist in the birth of your baby, your family and partner are invited to become involved in the birthing process.
We are committed to personal attention, gentle inquiries, tender examinations and client-directed problem solving. We feel that each woman needs a respectful atmosphere where she can blossom and mature in self-esteem. Our goal is to explore the unique person and her life in a holistic manner. We are committed to the education of ourselves and our clients regarding alternative approaches.
We provide quality, comprehensive health care throughout a woman’s life cycle. We recognize the special needs of young women and the importance of a positive introduction to women’s health care. As health care providers, we take responsibility for making gynecologic visits comfortable, non-threatening, respectful and informative. We regard the process of pregnancy, birth and maturation as normal, healthy life events that bring wonderful opportunities for personal growth.
