The Family Birth Place

The best of both worlds – all the comforts of home, along with the security only a modern hospital can provide.


Click here to visit our "New Arrivals" section.
Birth is a beautiful natural process. At Columbia Memorial's Family Birth Place our staff support the laboring woman and respect the individualized birth plan developed by her and her family. Our main concern for the obstetrical patient is meeting her needs, especially while in labor, and making birth a safe, loving, joyful event. Our comfortable patient rooms accommodate the birth process by bringing any
needed technology to the patient. After delivery,the equipment is removed and the room reverts to a "bedroom" where the new parents can remain together with their baby.

We believe pain management in labor is an individual's choice. We offer a variety of pain management techniques ranging from jacuzzi hydrotherapy, birthing ball, massage, intravenous pain medication, as well as intrathecals and epidurals.

Columbia Memorial Hospital Women’s Health Centers

Our care includes obstetrics and reproductive health.   We initiate treatment for infertility and work collaboratively with major centers offering advanced infertility treatment modalities. Our obstetrics practice accommodates the vast majority of obstetrical problems. We have a longstanding working relationship with sub-specialists at both Albany Medical Center and St. Peter's Hospital in Albany for those extreme situations requiring the care of sub-specialists.

Our Women's Health Centers also provide preventive medicine including yearly physicals, contraceptive management, evaluation and treatment of abnormal bleeding, menstrual irregularities, and pelvic pain. We also specialize in the traditional and alternative treatments for PMS, the perimenopause and menopause.
