Your Maternity Experience at LCGH

The OB/GYN program at Lewis County General Hospital is one of the finest in the North Country. We offer three experienced OB/GYN physicians, Josefina Tan-Domingo, Gerard A. Crawford II, and Cynthia H. Fraser, along with Adult Nurse Practitioner, Selina Hughes. Together they have over 65 years of experience in the specialty of bringing new life into the world. The program also includes a prenatal program to help prepare the new mom and dad for the arrival of the newest addition to their family.

The Maternity Department at LCGH contains the North Country's first Labor, Delivery, Recovery and Postpartum luxury suites. They are modern, comfortable rooms designed to make the birthing experience as comfortable as possible for the entire family. Security and safety are a top priority in the unit with high tech surveillance equipment in use 24 hours a day. The maternity staff is experienced, dedicated and totally patient focused during every step of the miracle of birth. If you wish to enjoy a personal tour of the modern unit please contact Lorrie Stanford, RN at 376-5200.
