There can be a lengthy list of questions that come to mind for a new parent, and no question will be left unanswered. To get you started, here’s a list of questions you can think of to ask: 

While the list could go on and on, we’ve selected three highlights that set us apart from other hospitals in our area: 

• Each patient at Williamson Medical Center has a story, and that story is not the same as the person coming to us before or after them. We’re proud to customize and tailor our care for each patient based on plans they’ve established with their team of doctors. 

• Here at Williamson Medical Center, our space is newly renovated as part of our brand new multi-million dollar expansion and renovation project that has taken place over the course of the last two years. The vast majority of the project is complete, and we’re excited to see how excited families are to be using the beautiful new space.   

• In addition to our expansion, we’re proud to offer a hydrotherapy tub for laboring patients. This can help in reducing pain by increasing the body’s natural pain relievers while also easing muscle tension that occurs with labor. The water also gives relief from pain and pressure associated with gravity, allowing the body to become weightless in the water. All of this helps to allow the mother to relax between contractions. 

Since 1958, we have built our reputation on a tradition of authenticity and exceptional care. We not only treat our patients’ physical needs, but we also care for them with compassion and respect. By combining extraordinary medical expertise and facilities with an environment where people are truly valued, we strive for a superior experience with every patient interaction. Conveniently located just off I-65 in Franklin, easy access to Williamson Health’s award-winning obstetrics and neonatal intensive care unit at Williamson Medical Center allows us to support many of our local communities with family-focused care and compassion.
