Frequently Asked Questions

Collaborative care means your entire Diana Health team is coordinating your care together. Our electronic health record allows each of your Diana Health providers to have a full picture of your whole health, so that they can make coordinated recommendations for your care. This means your Certified Nurse Midwife is talking to your therapist, and your OB/GYN is engaged with your dietitian. This ensures that every provider has a full view of what makes you uniquely you.

At Diana Health, all of our midwives are Certified Nurse Midwives, which means they are all advanced-level, registered nurses who specialize in women’s healthcare and childbirth. While midwives are specialized in assisting women in labor & delivery, their skill set goes well beyond that. Our midwives can treat menopause, adolescent gynecology care, urgent gynecology needs, prenatal care, and postpartum care. Our midwives work hand-in-hand with our physicians to provide comprehensive, whole health care to women of all ages.

Yes! One of the things we stress in our Diana Difference is that you are in the driver’s seat, and that includes your choice of provider. Whether you would prefer a midwife or an OB/GYN, a male or female provider, we try to meet all of your needs. However, we also believe in collaborative care and encourage all of our clients to meet as many Diana Health providers as they would like to find that one that fits best with your needs.

At Diana Health, one of our core differentiators is our focus on provider choice. At each of our practices, we have multiple types of providers you can see – but which provider type might be right for you?

OB/GYN – Our physicians are ideal for high-risk OB clients, or clients with complex gynecological needs. If you need high-touch care with a potential for a surgery, an OB/GYN may be the best choice.

Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) – Our CNMs are trained to see any and everything women’s health, with a particular focus on maternity care. Our midwives are perfect for clients with low-risk pregnancies, annual well woman visits, adolescent care, and routine gynecology concerns.

Nurse Practitioners – Our Nurse Practitioners are also trained to treat any and everything women’s health, but they are especially great for urgent gynecology needs like UTIs and STIs. You can see a Nurse Practitioner for everything from routine gynecology care, to adolescent care, to menopause, to low-risk prenatal visits.
