Women's Health Services

Jefferson Hospital and Augusta University (formally the Medical College of Georgia) are working in a collaborative effort to provide a Prenatal Center on our campus that provides community-based, low risk, comprehensive women’s health services.

The center is staffed by a Certified Nurse Midwife with medical oversight from physicians at the OB/GYN Department of Augusta University.

Everyone here at Jefferson Hospital believes in the promise of our future, which is why we strive to provide you and your family with the best care possible as you anxiously anticipate the arrival of your bundle-of-joy.

Our Women’s Health Clinic provides a caring atmosphere that is family-centered and dedicated to you and your baby’s health.
