Wonderful labor and delivery department! I was extremely nervous about delivering and all the nurses I had when delivering were wonderful. Dr. Perkinson was the on call doctor and he was fantastic. I never thought I would be laughing while delivering my baby, but it was truly a fun experience! They take great care of you here, I could have ten more babies in this hospital with the experience I had :)
