Obstetrical Care
Women’s Excellence welcomes over 60 newborn babies each month. We know that pregnancy is one of the most exciting experiences of your life and we strive to make your obstetrical care special and memorable. Our team will journey with you through pre-conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and post-partum.
We value a personalized approach to your obstetrical care as well. We know that every person is unique and no pregnancy is the same, which is why our team of obstetricians are able to care for both low and high risk pregnancies. We partner with our patients to provide an educational experience and the most up-to-date care.
In order to give you the best care possible, we use a team of board certified obstetricians and certified nurse midwives to give you the most natural and rewarding birth. Our model has consistently delivered one of the lowest c-section rates while maintaining safety in the hospital environment where there is access to a full service of high-risk obstetrical specialists and a world class neonatal nursery.

Will I have 1 doctor during my obstetrical care?
During your obstetrical care, you will become a part of our team. It is important for you to meet all of our obstetricians as labor and delivery is very unpredictable!

Yes! We have 4 locations in southeast Michigan that offer obstetrical care. Our offices are located in Birmingham, Clarkston, Lake Orion, and Royal Oak.
