We provide for delayed cord-clamping when possible, skin-to-skin contact between mom and baby where you will be able to hold, touch, and comfort your newborn. You may choose your own music that is special to you and your family. Once your baby has been checked by our pediatric nursing staff, you can breastfeed when your baby is ready.
Ultrasound
Westside Women’s Care offers an array of obstetric and gynecologic ultrasound services provided on site for your convenience. Our sonographers are ARDMS, board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology.

3D Ultrasound
We are pleased to now offer elective 3D Ultrasounds of your baby! While you can get an ultrasound at various points in your pregnancy, the best time to get the most ideal 3D images of your baby is typically between 26 and 32 weeks.

Very good Doctors and staff is friendly. My doc treats me like a real person, not just another insurance billing and she answers any question I may have. Best OBGYN I have had in CO in years. I’ve shared this office with all my friends.

I love this clinic so so much!!!
I had a miscarriage last summer and it was really hard time, but they sent me a hand writing message card and it warmed my heart.
I am always treated well, love all the nurses and doctors there, have never had any complaints at all.

The complete care given to me and also shown to me by the nurses, doctors and staff at Westside Women’s Care is unparalleled to anywhere I've ever been. Women’s health care is extremely complex physically as well as mentally. I came to Westside Women’s Care as a new patient in March. My health issues were weighing heavy on me and had a few bad experiences with other health professionals. I had new concerns for my OBGYN as well as all of prior chronic diagnoses for her to take into consideration and accommodate. I was at a crossroads and needed someone to help me. If it weren’t for my doctor I would have given up. All it takes is for someone to listen and actually hear you to get you the right help. Thank you so much for being compassionate enough to make my ENTIRE HEALTH your priority

I’ve had several babies with Westside and have worked with a lot of the staff. Dr. Minton is an amazing OB/GYN. I had the opportunity to work with both Drs. and Midwives this last pregnancy and it was a great experience. Dr. Minton is smart, kind, and very knowledgeable. He is chill and has a funny dry sense of humor. He addressed everything that came up during my pregnancies with unparalleled expertise. I felt like my questions & input were always welcomed. He was kind to our children when they accompanied me on occasion to prenatal visits. He’s the type of Dr. that after a long day of seeing patients & performing surgery, went out of his way just to stop by to meet the baby and check on us, simply because that’s the kind of person he is. At my follow-up visit we discussed health, nutrition, and all of my medical questions were thoroughly addressed. With Dr. Minton, you can expect to receive the best care available from a great person & a high quality medical professional. The practice as a whole is top notch. Jules is an awesome midwife and other staff like Alexis in labs and Melissa in ultrasound are fantastic as well. You truly can’t go wrong here - I highly recommend Westside Women’s Care in general and Dr. Minton specifically

We had a wonderful experience at Westside for the birth of our first child. From the very first visit through delivery, the midwives took such good care of us. They guided us when we needed it, answered our questions and respected our wishes. We could not have asked for a more caring and compassionate team

I had such an amazing birthing experience with Deb, a midwife on staff at Westside Women's Care. I transferred care to them late into my pregnancy and they made me feel so safe and reassured me they can aid me in having a natural birth that I so wanted.
