Positive OB Experience and First Footprints Wall

A family recently shared the outstanding experience they had with Wood County Hospital throughout the past year, from pregnancy through postpartum care. 

"We have had such a wonderful birthing experience. We were not expecting to have Isaiah, and he is a blessing we never knew we needed. Wood County added the cherry on top to our pregnancy, birthing and postpartum journey. We wouldn't choose any other hospital for our health needs. 

An example of how we can depend on Wood County is when Dr. Lemon personally called us on a weekend to ask how Isaiah and we, as new parents, are doing with his first virus. A personal call? In 2024? On a weekend? For a super cold? Wow. How KIND. How CARING.

I have also had some unfortunate complications afterwards that Dr. Porter, Dawn Miller RN, the OB, ER, med surg teams, and general surgeon Dr. Palmer have been incredibly kind and helpful throughout. They have all gone above and beyond for me and my family's care and well-being.

We will be forever grateful for the care we have had at Wood County and for helping us in our new chapter of parenthood. WCH is truly a gem of a hospital and the people that serve its mission."

The parents showed their support by making a donation and adding their son's footprint to the First Footprints wall leading into the Family Birthing Center.
