Dr. Darney describes midwifery.
Dr. Darney:
Midwifery means that obstetrical, that prenatal care and the delivery, the prenatal care and the delivery are conducted by trained midwives who practice a non-interventionist approach to obstetrics. That is, they take care of normal labor and delivery, and usually provide prenatal screening before so that if complexities develop, they can refer the patient to an obstetrician and provide postpartum care contraception, for example.
