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 🙂

Terry is an absolute GEM! I have been seeing her since 2013 and would never go see anyone else for my OBGYN needs. She is kind, caring, knowledgeable and truly cares about her patients on a deeper level. She delivered my first baby in Oct 2016 and because of her it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I am currently pregnant with my second and am so excited to have Terry by my side through this experience!

I absolutely ADORE my midwife, Terry DeFilippo! I had such an amazing birthing experience with my son because I had her by my side. She was so patient, kind and very respectful of my hippy, all natural birth plan! Her extra love and care helped me push through and have a very successful, all natural, interference free birth. I will never forget the beautiful moment she shared with me and my family. I couldn’t imagine anyone else delivering my future babies!!

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!

Terry is the sweetest and most loving midwife you will find. Before I had my daughter I was hospitalized for pre-eclampsia and had to deliver my baby early. Terry not only was there throughout the entire pregnancy, she listened and hugged me through tears and encouraged me at some of my weakest moments. She is an angel on earth! Everyone in our family loves this woman! Thank you Terry!

Terry delivered my sweet baby boy. She was such an amazing guide and support system through the entire process. She never left my side and always gave through instructions on what to expect. I don’t think I could of done it without someone like her. My family and I were super impressed and thank you from the body of our hearts for giving us the best gift.

On December 7th I arrived at Boca Regional Hospital in labor with my 3rd son. We knew he was large, but we never expected him to be as big as he was. He came extremely fast and my doctor didn’t make it for the delivery, nor was there time for an epidural. I was scared out of my mind and wanted to die from the pain. Then Terry entered the room. Instantly I knew I would be okay. She walked me through the natural delivery of my 11lb 7 oz baby boy and turned one of the most difficult things I have ever done into the most amazing thing I have ever done in my life. I will never forget the sound of her voice or the words she spoke to me on that day, nor the experience of having a natural, unmedicated birth. I have had three natural births, the first two being medicated and 5 different Obgyns because we moved when I was pregnant with the first and then again with the second. My only regret is not having known Terry sooner than during the delivery of my 3rd son. I am done having children now, but I would never again go under an MD’s care, nor would I deliver with one. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Terry for a truly amazing birth.

I recently gave birth to my first child in 2014. I had an amazing birthing experience due to the support by Terry as my midwife.
I labored for 20 hours total, and Terry was there with every turn, helping, comforting and making sure we’re doing the best to accommodate both the baby and the mother.

Due to Terry’s patience I was able to avoid a C-Section, as she was there guiding the baby’s head through the birth canal through many contractions, creating an amazing empowering birthing experience.

Terry is knowledgeable, experienced and warm, and has a great calming approach! I am so happy for the decision to have her guide the birth of my son 🙂
