Thamarah Crevecoeur

Thamarah Crevecoeur's interest in women's health and midwifery began over 15 years ago, after taking a trip to a birth Center in Les Cayes, Haiti. There she worked with Haitian midwives and traditional birth attendants. She became intrigued with the passion and purpose of midwives in helping to care and save the lives of women during this special time. After completing her midwifery degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 2007, she then again returned to Haiti for approximately 9 months and worked with auxiliary nurses delivering babies.Since 2008, Thamarah Crevecoeur has been practicing full scope midwifery at Boston Medical Center in Boston, MA. She provides well-woman gynecological, prenatal, labor and delivery, and postpartum care. Her patients are close to her heart, as they are mostly immigrants from Haiti and the other Caribbean islands. In addition to practicing midwifery, Ms. Crevecoeur completed her Doctor of Public Health (DrPH) at Boston University School of Public Health. Her academic areas of interest include qualitative research around women’s experiences with maternity care, international and immigrant maternal child health, Monitoring & Evaluation, and Quality Improvement. She truly believes in the concept of exceptional care without exception for all women. She is FAHM's Vice President.
