Mayo Clinic midwives provide antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care to women delivering at Mayo Clinic’s flagship location in Rochester, Minnesota and support the midwifery teams at satellite locations within the Mayo Clinic Health System.

As a unit, obstetrics team members assist in the delivery of more than 2,400 babies each year.
