Mission Hospital Birth Center

At Mission Hospital, patients can expect the most up-to-date decision aids needed to tailor their personalized maternity and birth plan. Maternal and fetal safety is our top priority, so interventions like pain medication, cesarean-sections and episiotomies are used only when medically necessary, or as part of your predetermined birth plan.

We empower women by offering a full suite of birthing options, including natural birth in a homelike setting with our new team of midwives. Through a special relationship with CHOC Children’s at Mission Hospital, we are directly connected to CHOC’s neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for babies needing specialized care. And a team of newborn intensive care physicians and nurses are available to attend your birth if medically necessary. We are doula-friendly and provide compassionate guidance throughout your entire birthing process.
