Obstetrics and Gynecology

Every woman is different and it’s important to find a doctor who offers the comprehensive care you need for whatever stage of life you’re in.

Obstetrical Care (OB)

UK St. Claire has been providing obstetric care for over 55 years. It all started with our founder, Dr. Claire Louise Caudill, who is believed to have delivered more than 8,000 babies in her career. Today, our doctors are proud to carry on her legacy delivering more than 400 babies at St. Claire Regional Medical Center each year.

Our medical staff offers a variety of family medicine doctors, OB/GYNs, and midwives to choose from for your obstetrical care.

  • Family Medicine Doctor – Family medicine doctors provide care for the entire family, including obstetrical care. Your doctor will see you in the office throughout your pregnancy, and assist with labor and delivery. Women often choose a family medicine doctor because they will not only care for them during their pregnancy, but they will also care for their baby beyond the pregnancy. UK St. Claire’s family medicine doctors offer obstetrical care at our clinics in Bath, Carter, Elliott, Menifee, and Rowan Counties.
  • OB/GYN – An obstetrician-gynecologist (OB-GYN), specializes in women’s health including female reproductive health, pregnancy, and childbirth. Your OB/GYN will see you in the office throughout your pregnancy, assist with labor and delivery, and perform a cesarean delivery if needed. OB/GYNs on UK St. Claire’s medical staff are employed by UK HealthCare. They see patients at UK Morehead Women’s Healthcare and deliver babies and perform surgeries at St. Claire Regional Medical Center.
  • Midwife – Midwives are trained health professionals who assist healthy women throughout their pregnancy, and during labor and delivery. Women who want little medical intervention may choose a midwife to provide their care. Midwives on UK St. Claire’s medical staff are employed by UK HealthCare. They see patients at UK Morehead Women’s Healthcare and deliver babies at St. Claire Regional Medical Center.
