Announcing Mercy’s newest birth option: Mercy Medical Center–West Lakes

Mercy Medical Center–West Lakes offers low-risk moms an alternative location for their full-term baby’s arrival. Mercy West Lakes features ten private labor, delivery, recovery and post-partum suites that blend the warmth and comfort of a home-like setting. The technology and equipment your doctor and nurses need is in the suite, and is neatly tucked away out of sight when not in use.  In the event that you’d required a C-section delivery, we’re prepared with a dedicated cesarean surgical suite to welcome your little one into the world. We offer a variety of pain relief methods, including anesthesia services and epidurals to help you feel more at ease.

Each sun-lit suite includes state-of-the-art technology and amenities such as:
  • Flat panel television with DVD/CD players
  • Accommodations for support person
  • Dining area
  • Wireless Internet
  • Whirlpool tub
Come be our guest! To schedule a free tour of our birthing unit and meet our staff, please call 358-8300.
