Mabel’s New York State guide currently covers New York City, with more cities on the way. These 10 providers are a statewide selection drawn from midwives not featured on the citywide list, so you see different names here.
How we ranked: Ranked by experience, credentials, hospital access, patient feedback and verified practice details. To keep this list distinct from neighborhood pages, no more than two providers from one neighborhood appear in the top ten, and no neighborhood page shares more than 20% of its midwives with this page.
