Premier OB/GYN LLC Was Founded

Premier OB/GYN LLC was built with midwifery at its center, aiming to provide compassionate care that honors both mother and baby equally. Our mission is simple: empower women, promote healthy families, and foster trust in the care they receive.
Unfortunately, many women have shared stories where choices were taken away or care was dictated without their input. These experiences often lead to lasting harm and erode confidence in the healthcare system. At Premier OB/GYN, we strive to change that by offering a safe, empowering space where every voice is heard.

Our Approach to Maternity Care

Our care model is built on collaboration between physicians and midwives to ensure the best outcomes for both mother and baby. We believe that empowerment and respectful communication are crucial to making informed decisions during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. Whether you’re experiencing a routine pregnancy or facing high-risk factors, our team is here to guide you with care, understanding, and support.

Experience and Expertise in Women's Health

With over 20 years of combined experience in obstetrics and gynecology, Dr. Hervey and Ellie Tan offer a wealth of knowledge in high-risk pregnancy care, prenatal education, and holistic maternal support. Together, they lead a practice committed to providing the safest, most empowering birth experiences, with a focus on personalized care that meets every woman’s unique needs.

At Premier OB/GYN LLC, patient care is at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to ensuring that every patient feels heard, valued, and supported throughout their pregnancy journey.
