Testimonials

  • "Marisol went above and beyond with a challenging birth. Marisol's patience and compassion allows patient's to find peace... Thank you Marisol!"

    UNC Medical Center Midwife

  • "Marisol was there when I needed her. Marisol also critically afforded my husband breaks so he could sleep. I'm really glad Marisol was there to help me make calm decisions."

    MJ

  • "Even though she was not able to be physically present, Marisol was our rock yet again as she fielded a very anxious and worried phone call. After the call, we were able to make a choice confidently and calmly about how we wanted to proceed. We were so thankful for the comfort and concern that Marisol was able to provide, even at a distance, and are so happy we reached out to her, especially for our first birth experience!"
