We are so happy we chose Dr. Heather Hines as our midwife. We decided to switch from our OB fairly far along in this pregnancy. We based our decision mainly on Heathers decades of experience in midwifery. What we didn't expect is that she would eventually come to feel like family. I've truly never met a healthcare provider so personally invested inyheir patients experience. Heather was totally attentive to our needs and concerns throughout the pregnancy. With her care and guidance, my wife had an unmedicated, at-home birth of our first baby boy. People like Heather are very rare. She's incredibly kind, intelligent, passionate, and an unparalleled expert in midwifery. However, even with her credentials and expertise, she never condescended to us or dismissed our concerns as soon to be parents. It was a much different experience from our OB's and many other healthcare providers we've encountered. I can't recommend Dr. Hines enough. If you get the chance to meet her, you'll understand why.

Heather delivered 2 of my 3 children. She was patient, kind, and was always there to answer any question I had-- I had tons!!! On delivery day, she was literally my ROCK.. both times. She prayed over me, and made me feel like I could do anything. I also see Heather for my regular gynecological checkups. She is the TRUTH! If you are looking for an informative and personable midwife- She's your girl!!!

If you are in search of a midwife to provide the best birthing experience possible, look no further!! Heather is the midwife for you! When it comes to childbirth, my ideal provider has to make me feel seen, heard and understood. From our first meeting I knew I had found all of that and more in Heather. I was very satisfied with the great prenatal care I received. No matter the question or concern, Heather had an answer and solution. Heather's office is not only a safe space but it is also a judgement free zone. This was the safest I have ever felt with any health care provider. I really only had one concern this pregnancy which was late preterm labor. I feared that I would miss out on the home birthing experience by ending up at a hospital. Fortunately, a misunderstanding turned out to be the biggest blessing! I was under the assumption that I would lose Heather if I had to go to a hospital. As I went into labor slightly earlier than expected, Heather was able to meet me at Stonybrook Hospital and deliver my son. I was still able to have the safest and best natural birthing experience possible!! I felt seen, heard and supported! Heather literally held my hand through the process! I cannot thank Heather enough for making my birthing experience the best!!

As an advocate for Womens health it was imperative that I find a provider that I felt most comfortable with. It took sometime but I have finally met the provider for me and she’s a black midwife on Eastern Long Island. 😊Heather addressed all of my questions, took the time to ensure she had my previous medical records and paused to let me think if I had any more questions. Many people asked why I wanted a midwife since I am not pregnant, midwives provide healthcare for women period. You don’t have to be pregnant, or looking to become pregnant. I am happy to have Heather as my midwife, because I felt safe as soon as she walked in the room to greet me.

I see Heather for midwifery care for all my gynecological needs. She makes me feel respected and listened to more than any OB I have been to. Whether you are looking for an annual exam, to talk about birth control options, sexual health, balancing your hormones or have any issue Heather is the best. She provides a calming and supportive environment and I have learned so much about my body. I never feel embarrassed to go to her with a question and thoroughly look forward to an appointment. If you are looking for personalized, top-notch care, go see Dr. Heather Hines!
