Terry DeFilippo, C.N.M.

There are no words to describe Terry and all she has done for me through each of my pregnancies. She is warm, fully in-tune, and incredibly thoughtful. Not one to pressure in any direction, but always there to support your family’s needs and choices. Terry has been my midwife for 8 years, and I have always felt like one of her most important patients. She is an absolute gem!

My mother, my sister, and I all see Terry. She has seen me for years. No complaints. She is so gentle and encouraging.

As a first time mom, you can imagine how nervous I was but, Terry made the entire experience so amazing. She was calm and sweet about everything. It was absolutely perfect. Thank you Terry!

When I was pregnant with my first child I started off with an OBGYN at a different practice. She seemed cold and disconnected. I was excited and nervous. It was my first child. After much chat with other women and research I as recommended to Terry multiple times. After meeting her I was 100% sure I made the right decision not only to switch practices but to switch to a midwife. She was so personable and full of smiles. She was always excited with me and if I was nervous just talking to her calmed me down. She always informed me of my choices and let me decide. My first son was big and late and she knew I wanted to avoid a c section so at 40w 2 days we induced. It was a bumpy delivery but she did it! She successfully delivered my 8lb 4oz baby boy. No cutting. No stitching up. She was with me in the hospital room from start to finish. She said we made the right call to induce bc after examining the placenta she said it started to deteriorate and in a few more days the baby would have had oxygen issues. For my second baby 3 years later, he was breech my whole pregnancy. She said a fellow doctor in the practice, Dr Arcelin was excellent at external versions. By 37 weeks I made the decision to try flipping my little one. Terry met me at the hospital with the doctor and after just a few minutes my little one was flipped. I had a successful vaginal birth a week and half later. I’m so grateful for Terry’s guidance and support through everything. Thanks to her and the others at women’s health I have 2 great, successful birth stories to tell.

Terry has been my practitioner for well over 15 years and she is the best! She is so knowledgeable, always available for any question or concern. She is one of the kindest people I know and feel very blessed to have her in charge of my medical needs. I respect her so much, and am grateful for all she does!

I LOVE Terry!!! She has always been so kind and encouraging for every visit. I will never see another doctor! She is the best.

Terry delivered my first born. She wasn’t my midwife I was used to seeing so I was very hesitant when my water broke and my midwife was not available. Terry was soooooo amazing-she made a very scary experience for me, a positive and calm one. She was informative and patient, and in constant contact with me for the 18 hours I was in labor. I would be blessed if she was to deliver my second baby too 🙂

I recently made the decision to leave my Dr. of 20+ years and move to Women’s Health Partners and was delighted to see Terry, who was one of the Midwives in another practice when I delivered my son 18 years ago! What a small world. She is so invested in her patients — she took time to explain things and answer questions. I plan to stick with WHP and continue to see her for my annual visits. Plus the office is beautiful and very friendly!
