The La Altagracia Maternity Hospital, the country’s main public gynecology and obstetrics facility, has a new team of obstetric gynecologists to improve their handling of obstetric emergencies 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Hospital director Dr. Joselyn Sanchez Parra said that they hope that these emergency specialists will help improve the quality of healthcare provided to the thousands of low-income women who use the hospital.
