Thundermist Health Center offers prenatal care, labor and delivery services, postpartum care, and newborn care to our community. The prenatal program provides patients with high-quality prenatal care and babies with healthy and strong beginnings.
We arrange smooth transitions back to the health center after delivery for ongoing pediatric, postpartum, and primary care. We also have a strong behavioral health and social services department to assist with any emotional or social needs.
In addition, we offer medication-assisted treatment (Subutex) for prenatal patients with opiate use disorders. Thundermist will help to individualize your delivery plan and manage any symptoms of withdrawal your newborn may experience
We value our provider-patient relationship and focus on building this connection over the course of your pregnancy.
We are always accepting new pregnant patients.
