Gave birth to my daughter last November 2016, I was very happy with my choice and I would make it again for sure. The nurses were amazing and accommodating!! Very informative as well, they read my birth plan, were very supportive and helped me through everything, I felt like I was definitely in good hands. The rooms were private and very spacious for family and friends. My only complaint was toward my doctor, but let me be clear the Hospital is not to blame. If I would've chosen someone who would've actually shown up, their would be no complaint. The doctor on call didn't know me and was rude, he didn't bother to read my birth plan, just glanced at it (I didn't ask for much, or anything unreasonable.) He sat there the whole time on his phone until it was "time" and refused to let me give birth my way. My ONLY regret is NOT going psycho on his ass by yelling at him to leave my room immediately and let me delivery my child on my own (with the assistance of the nurses of course.) I had asked for a completely natural birth in ANY position except on my back. Which was very important to me.
