For our OB Feature Friday, we're thrilled to introduce Baby Brody, who made his grand entrance earlier this year at HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital! His mom shared her heartfelt experience with us, highlighting the incredible care she received during this special time. "Had an amazing experience here for the birth of my son. All the nurses were so caring! Alexandra was the first nurse I saw when I was admitted and made me feel at ease. My postpartum nurses were also fantastic, checking in on us and ensuring we had everything we needed as new parents. Plus, attending the birthing class beforehand was so helpful in preparing for Brody’s arrival! Thank you so much HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital for your kind staff and OB department for making us feel like family. You made my transition to motherhood a smooth experience!” Thank you to our dedicated OB team for making every family feel like part of ours. Your compassion and support truly make a difference!
