Comments

  • Diane began her life as a middle child in a family of eleven children. She has six living sisters, two living brothers, fifteen nieces and nephews, one wonderful son, three old dogs, a loving supportive partner, and many good friends, all of whom she would have difficulty living without. Diane has maintained a lifestyle which bolsters her interest, respect, and enjoyment of people.
    Diane’s path to nurse-midwifery began with a diploma in nursing from St. Joseph Hospital School of Nursing, Bangor, in 1983, and a Bachelor of Science of Human Services, 1993.
    Both her professional and personal work guided Diane to graduate work in nursing at the Frontier School of Midwifery and Family Nursing, Community Based Program in Hyden Kentucky and Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio. She became a Certified Nurse Midwife in 1997 and has been practicing full-scope midwifery in the Ellsworth community since that time.
    Diane is spirited by the opportunity to continue working and learning with Renata Moise, CNM, Carole, and the Downeast Community. She will also continue to pursue her interests in the outdoors and yoga; as well as both allopathic and alternative health care models that support the fact that all women know their bodies better than anyone.
