Certified Nurse Midwife Joins Northern Berkshire OB/GYN
 |
Gudz earned her master of science in nurse midwifery and women's health at the Ohio State University College of Nursing in Columbus. She is board certified as a women's health nurse practitioner. Gudz most recently interned as a nurse midwife and nurse practitioner at a private practice in Columbus, managing normal and high-risk obstetric and gynecologic patients and performing deliveries.
"We are pleased to welcome Marie into our collaborative practice of obstetrics and gynecology," said Dr. Charles O'Neill. "She brings a fresh perspective combined with superb medical training, and has readily meshed with our program of providing first-rate healthcare to the women of our region."
"Nurse midwifery is a holistic approach to patients' health," said Gudz. "We can apply that approach to women of all ages – from onset of menses to post-menopause. It means we take into account what’s going on in the patient's life – if she is under stress, if she is sleeping well and getting the support she needs. It all factors into overall health."
Gudz is a native of Mount Vernon, Ohio, and now lives in Williamstown. She joins O'Neill and Drs. Susan Yates, Alison Hastings and Veronica Del Riccio at Northern Berkshire OB/GYN. She can be reached at 413-664-4343.
