I had my first 2 children naturally (no epidural and no pain medication), but I knew there had to be more help out there during the birthing process. There is!!! Heather Caudell is an AMAZING midwife who cares, explains things (like NO other health care provider I have come into contact with), and is an expert in midwifery!!! We had our 3rd naturally with Heather's help (could NOT have done it without her!). She did some midwifery tricks and coaching, without which, I don't know if I could've done it naturally. We recently had our 4th with Heather but due to concerns for our baby in utero and mommy, it was recommended we induce at 37 weeks. The baby wasn't tolerating the contractions, so we subsequently had to have a c-section with our 4th. Although not natural, we TRUST Heather's advice, expertise and intuition and we have a healthy baby. As crazy as it sounds, after the natural births, the c-section was still an amazing birth experience BECAUSE I trusted Heather's care and advice and it all proved to be trustworthy! I also didn't understand what a BIG part she would play in the operating room - she's professional, calming and does a lot of work in the OR. She has the mother's desires and baby's best interests in mind. She will walk you through every decision point with precision, tact, and information and allow you to decide the best course of action. My husband and I would recommend her to anyone.

She is the kindest and most compassionate medical professional I've ever encountered. She has been so wonderful to my Fiancé and I during a time I can only describe as the worst day of my life . I will never trust anyone else to care for me besides her. Thank you Heather. Juline & Joel

This woman changed my life. She has been so helpful through the pain I'm enduring and she made me feel as comfortable as possible. She consistently checked in on me and was very supportive once I was discharged from the hospital. She has taken her career to an entire different level and especially a great midwife to me. Thank you so much. Antoinette S.

Heather puts the welfare and wishes of the patient(s) (mothers and babies) first. She is well informed and shares any knowledge she has, as well as any options available at any stage in pregnancy and birth. She has so much knowledge, and it shows in every appointment. For the birth of our twins, I really wanted an intervention, medfree birth and she did everything in her power to make that happen. I did not need a c section, but instead gave birth to two healthy babies, with the second one being a double footling breech. For being willing to deliver our breech baby naturally (without a c section), she will forever have my gratitude, admiration, and support. She truly is an advocate for both mother and babies, and that is priceless. Highly, highly recommend this midwife!

Heather is thorough, thoughtful, and informed. I completely trust her, and am so grateful I made the decision to use her as my midwife. I feel like I have her complete attention during our prenatal visits, and I never feel rushed. She has even sent me snail-mail after a rough week. You just don't get that kind of individualized health care from medical doctors anymore. She has MORE knowledge, in my opinion, than the average OBGYN, on what a healthy pregnancy looks like. I'm looking forward to my birthing experience, knowing she will be there by my side!
