Welcome to the World, Little Leonel!

On March 31 at 8:37pm, little Leonel was brought into the world at PVHMC.

Iliana Ortiz and George Berruecos, Pomona residents and first-time parents, hadn’t been able to stop looking at their newborn baby boy. “We can’t sleep because we can’t stop staring at him,” said Iliana. “I just love my son.”

Leonel was delivered via C-section by Maria Siu, DO, FACOG, OB/GYN.

“Dr. Siu was calm throughout my procedure,” said Iliana. “I didn’t expect it to be so smooth and painless, but Dr. Siu really knew what she was doing. I healed so quickly and was able to get out of bed and walk the same day that I had my son.”

“She really cares about both mom and baby,” added George. “Dr. Siu always had a smile on her face and kept popping in to check on us.”

The couple says that the entire care team was awesome and very helpful, as they had expected.

“I knew that PVHMC was going to be where I delivered,” said Iliana. “It was recommended by my close family and friends, and I read lots of reviews about the great care here. I’m very happy that I had my baby here.”

We're so proud to welcome these first-time parents and their sweet baby boy to the PVHMC family!
