You want the best care possible for your baby before, during, and after birth. The experienced family medicine physicians at Lincoln Family Medicine Center in Lincoln, Nebraska are recognized for their compassionate and advanced obstetrical and pediatric care – the kind of care that you want for you and your newborn.

Experienced Family Medicine Physicians

Family Medicine physicians specialize in primary care and are experienced in taking care of a broad range of medical conditions. Their patients range in age from birth to geriatrics. Family physicians’ scope of knowledge covers almost every area of medicine as they are required to receive training in all aspects of healthcare, including obstetrics and pediatrics. 

At Lincoln Family Medicine, our experienced team includes family medicine physicians who are all board-certified and faculty members of Lincoln Family Medicine Residency Program, and medical resident physicians who have trained at leading academic institutions. Together, we use advanced medicine in caring for you and your baby. 

Comprehensive Obstetric Care and Beyond

We provide comprehensive obstetric services from pregnancy through delivery, and long after for moms and their babies. You have two doctors assigned to you throughout your pregnancy who will answer your questions and oversee your plan of care. Your physicians and care team are committed to making sure you are involved in all decisions that impact you and your baby. We’re by your side from the first visit during your pregnancy, to the delivery of your baby at the hospital, to your baby’s pediatric care after birth, and postpartum care for you. 

Our compassionate care doesn’t stop once you and your newborn go home. The relationship of trust you develop with your providers continues to strengthen through all stages of life for you and your baby. We will see your little one for:

  • Well-child Visits

  • Vaccinations

  • School Physicals

  • Other Medical Needs

We understand that mom’s care continues well after the birth of your baby. Many women experience postpartum health problems and our team is here to support you through those emotional changes as well.

At Lincoln Family Medicine Center, we want to provide that same comprehensive care to all members of the family. We believe it's the relationships we create with our patients over time that allow us to better understand their health needs so that we can provide them with exceptional care throughout life.

Patient Resources

Throughout your pregnancy, we want you to be actively involved in your care plan. That’s why we offer education on what to expect and how to be healthy throughout your pregnancy. We are here to support you in every way possible, and to answer any questions you may have about your baby or concerns for yourself. We also offer infant care classes.

A unique program exclusively available to moms who choose to have their obstetric care at Lincoln Family Medicine is The Market. At The Market, moms receive free diapers at scheduled prenatal visits starting at 28 weeks, and during the baby's first year of well-child visits at 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months. 

The Market also offers moms a multitude of items that may be needed for babies at no cost to them, such as:

  • Hygiene Products

  • Infant Formula Samples

  • Car Seat Safety

Moms also receive a tote bag filled with miscellaneous baby items, including swaddling blankets, clothing, bibs, thermometer, and hand-crocheted items. All participants are automatically registered in the program at their first prenatal visit.
