August 2007
My son's wife delivered a baby by C-Section at Mae Lewis Hospital in David. There were 4 doctors in the OR during the procedure. She stayed in a private room for 3 days. The total cost was $2500.00 including doctors, nurses and hospital. The care was top notch. In Oregon where we lived the cost would have been $25,000.00
The doctor who delivered the baby has an office within Mae Lewis Hospital
She would return to Mae Lewis to deliver another baby...no problem
Visit Mae Lewis Hospital for consultation. Talk to Javier Adames who is the medical director for the hospital
