NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital

Maternity Care

Labor & delivery

When you choose to welcome your baby at NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital, we work with you to develop a birth plan that matches your unique needs and values. Our world-class board-certified OB/GYNs from Columbia provide exceptional care for all types of pregnancies, including those considered high-risk.

Compassionate care from highly skilled midwives

NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital offers extensive midwifery services, with a dedicated team of inpatient, full-scope midwives to support you throughout your birth experience. Many vaginal deliveries at our hospital are performed by our expert midwives, and birthing persons may request this service if they’re at low risk for complications. Our comprehensive midwife program is part of our collaboration with NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center.

Modern facilities for mothers & babies

The labor and delivery suite at NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital features:

Eleven labor and delivery rooms
Two surgical suites for cesarean deliveries
Doula-led education programs and prenatal classes

Seven of our spacious labor and delivery rooms are used for childbirth and contain private baths, while the remaining four rooms are used for triage, antepartum care, and postoperative care. We offer several private postpartum rooms at no additional cost, available on a first-come, first-served basis. These comfortable spaces provide new families with the privacy they need to rest, recover, and bond with their newborn. Expectant mothers can learn more about our facilities by scheduling a maternity tour.

High-risk pregnancy services

Women and birthing persons with high-risk pregnancies can receive all the specialty care they need from our maternal-fetal medicine experts, who are also part of the world-class team at the Children's Hospital of New York.

We offer a range of services for complex pregnancies and deliveries, from routine screening tests to advanced diagnostic tools and antepartum monitoring, all in one accessible location. Our specialists are here to support you and your baby during and after your pregnancy.
