Six years ago, Memphis had two or three midwives. It now has at least 10. Late this summer, it will have a program to train doctorate-level nurses in midwifery at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. It is the only program in a public university in the tri-state area and the second in the state behind Vanderbilt University.
