MEETING YOU WHERE YOU ARE, WITHOUT JUDGMENT

I recently switched care to Oula from an OB and I am so glad I did! I feel incredibly heard, respected, and informed regarding every question I have and decision I have made thus far in this pregnancy. Midwives take care to give real evidence and data behind why every recommendation is given.

The difference in terms of patient care, vibe, everything is night and day. Oula is so wonderful! They really treat you like a whole person, not just a number. Highly recommend.

I wanted a holistic pregnancy experience where I felt heard and seen as a woman of color. That's exactly what I got from Oula! The beautiful space in Brooklyn always got me excited to go to all my appointments. The entire team is so attentive and thoughtful. 10/10 rating, and I plan to come back for my next pregnancy.
I am incredibly happy with the quality of care I have received from the Oula team throughout my pregnancy, delivery and postpartum journey. I have always felt heard and respected, and everyone on the team has provided a compassionate, evidence-based approach to my care that has helped me to be informed and empowered in my decision-making. This is how I wish all health care was like!

My first pregnancy ended in a traumatic labor experience and emergency c-section that was rushed and likely unnecessary. For my 2nd pregnancy I really wanted a VBAC. I wanted to be supported and heard throughout my pregnancy. I wanted there to be focus on my preferences as well as mine and my baby's safety.
