Services
Our obstetrician and gynecologists, certified nurse midwives, women’s health nurse practitioners and mental health professionals specialize in caring for women. These medical experts are trained to care for women with both uncomplicated pregnancies and those which are medically complex.

Outside of pregnancy, we help women achieve wellness and manage health concerns. The services we offer include:

Hospital-based care
This is a hospital-based clinic owned by Hennepin Healthcare. Many insurance plans pay for health care services provided in a hospital-based clinic differently than those provided in a doctor’s office. Your insurance may require that you meet your annual deductible and/or require that you pay a percentage of the bill rather than just an office visit co-payment. You should check with your insurance company if you have any questions. Read the Frequently asked questions about hospital-based clinics to learn more.
