Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Stephanie is a wonderful person and an awesome midwife, who I hope will be available to deliver any future children my husband and I have! She’s warm, compassionate, caring, highly-skilled and super supportive! My husband and I decided to switch to a birth center in our 3rd trimester. We were a bit nervous about the late change, but Stephanie really put our minds at ease. She was so personable, knowledgable, and really easy to talk to; she felt like an instant friend. I had an overwhelming urge

Stephanie is a great midwife and provider. She has excellent bedside manners, she is present with you, she spends as much time with you as needed to discuss your concerns as well as answer any questions you may have. Stephanie has caught both of our babies, her confidence is contagious and she helps you to believe that you can do it. If you want a professional that treats you like you are important, listens, offers her advice in a non-judgmental way and empowers you, then Stephanie is it!

Stephanie is kind, compassionate,and above all professional. After two difficult birth experiences, I switched to her practice. I had a lot of complicated issues and anxiety during this pregnancy and basically needed a lot of hand holding. Stephanie treated me with so much compassion, respect, and understanding, far above anyone else in the medical profession. My birth experience felt supported and safe. For me it healed the emotional pain from my first 2 births, Stephanie is the reason.

Whether for general women?s health or pregnancy and labor/delivery, I trust Stephanie. I trust her experience and expertise. She cares about her patients, is honest, level-headed, and thorough. I was able to discuss my fears about pregnancy and birth with her and felt understood. I trust her with my health, and she made the experience of pregnancy and birth wonderful. Stephanie helped me be empowered in the birth of my daughter, and I am empowered with my own health. Stephanie is one of a kind.

I have worked with Stephanie for over 10 years and she is my daughter's provider. Stephanie has always been a wonderful provider and leader for our community. She is kind, gentle, and understanding of her patients needs. She is also very down to earth and provides excellent patient education. Stephanie has empowered so many women over the past decade in Las Cruces and I'm sure will continue to do so. As a nurse, a patient, and the mother of a patient I can attest that Stephanie is an amazing CNM

I have been a patient of Stephanies for 7 years, in which time she delivered both of my girls. There are not enough good things to say about this unique wonderful woman. She goes above and beyond for not just me, but for everyone. I can't imagin meeting a better midwife. She is not only the most professional midwife in Las Cruces, but she is also very personable. My family LOVES her!!
