At Pennsylvania Hospital, we offer advanced obstetric care for women of every age with the warmth and personal touch of a community hospital. We offer prenatal care at Penn Medicine Washington Square, Penn Medicine Valley Forge and Cherry Hill. Prenatal care is also available at the Ludmir Center for Women.
With over 5,000 births a year, we have a wide array of specialized treatments and services to ensure healthy babies, healthy mothers and happy families. Each birth is a wondrous event and every woman receives individualized care for her unique needs. Our team of highly skilled professionals includes obstetricians, certified nurse-midwives, perinatologists (for high-risk pregnancies), pediatricians specializing in newborn care, neonatologists, genetic counselors, nurses and social workers.
We are the first in the region and one of only 58 hospitals in the country to have received Perinatal Care Certification from the Joint Commission. This certification recognizes our commitment to integrated, coordinated, patient-centered care that supports and maintains the health of mothers and newborns. You can learn more about it, here.
