Moms-to-be in Forsyth have reason to rejoice and relax. They can enjoy all the benefits of Northside Hospital's nationally-acclaimed Women's Center, an Atlanta legacy, without the harrowing hour-plus drive down Georgia Highway 400. For more than a generation, Northside Hospital has been the first stop for thousands of Metro Atlanta's newborns, including 2,500 born annually to Forsyth County residents. Northside Hospital-Forsyth opened its long-awaited Women's Center in August 2008, bringing maternity and new born services closer to home for Forsyth County families. The frequent tales of laboring mothers and stressed-out fathers stuck in traffic in route on Georgia 400 is a thing of the past.

"This is great news for expectant moms and families in Forsyth," says Dr. Sean Lambert, a local board-certified ob-gyn and founder of North Pointe Ob-Gyn and Associates. Northside has been the standard in women's obstetrical care for decades, and now they are extending their legacy by extending their sphere of influence northward. We're jumping in with both feet and expanding our practice in Forsyth to meet the growing demand for our services locally." North Point Ob-Gyn has offered services in Cumming for 15 years, but now we have doubled our space and have made our offices at Northside-Forsyth our only office.

"North Pointe Ob/Gyn and Associates has three physicians and four certified midwives on staff to provide expectant patients with comprehensive care throughout their pregnancy. Besides Lambert and Siegel, the group includes Dr. Robert Barrett and Certified Nurse Midwives Linda Bell, Susan Lores, Brenda "Breia" Loft, and Elizabeth Sunday. From conception to delivery, the experienced team provides the very latest and best obstetrical options and care. The prenatal program includes regular medical checkups for the expecting mother, patient education, access to birthing class information, and more. In addition, North Pointe's gynecological practice offers a complete array of cutting edge services including laproscopic procedures.
