Care for nonpregnant women is provided at our Maple Center office in Suite 600, (812) 235-4867.

Incentive Program
We also have developed an incentive program to foster healthy behaviors in which our patients can earn points when those behaviors are noted. Patients are awarded points on visits if they maintain healthy lifestyle practices throughout their pregnancy.

With those points, they will be awarded items from The Helping Hands, a not-for-profit organization designed to provide quality clothing and household items to people in Terre Haute and surrounding areas.
