"I was promptly taken to labor and delivery when I was giving birth to my son. The staff was exceptionally accommodating and ensured my comfort before performing any procedures."
— LocalityBiz Review"I gave birth at this hospital and it was a nightmare. They let some relatives in the delivery room while I was still giving birth, the nurses lied to a dcf officer because I wanted to go home due to being neglected and even as far as force fed my baby formula during his first day..."
