More About Zoe:

“My favorite part of being a midwife is connecting with clients and their families to learn about what they value, their goals, and what they need support in. I moved to Eugene to work at the birth center because it is a rare place that truly allows for the client to be the center of care. It is a gift to be able to provide care that views the client as a whole person and values supporting their diverse needs. I am honored to be part of a team that cares so deeply for and about clients and families.”
