“My husband and I have nothing but praise for the Oaklawn Birth Center staff. We live in Northern Virginia and were on our way to West Michigan to visit family when I went into pre-term labor. We delivered a healthy baby girl and could not have been more pleased with the care we received! The entire staff made us feel at home and relieved a lot of the stress that comes with having your first child (let alone a ‘premie’).”
