Professional Bio
Steve Calvin is board-certified in OB/GYN and Maternal-Fetal Medicine. He has cared for mothers and babies with the entire range of pregnancy concerns since 1980. He is a graduate of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, did his OB/GYN residency at the University of Minnesota and his Maternal-Fetal Medicine fellowship at the University of Arizona in Tucson. He practiced full scope MFM with Minnesota Perinatal Physicians for 20 years while serving as a clinical faculty member at the University of Minnesota. Since early 2024 he has been an Associate Professor at Banner University of Arizona Medical Center in Phoenix.
As founder and medical director of the Minnesota Birth Center he strongly supports pregnancy care for low-risk mothers that is provided by nurse midwives in birth centers and hospitals. He believes that health care reform should start where we all did – with pregnancy and birth and that all mothers deserve comprehensive team-based care for a single package price. To that end he developed the BirthBundle® and is especially focused on improving care for the mothers and babies covered by Medicaid. In December 2024 he completed an appointed four-year term on the HHS Advisory Committee on Infant and Maternal Mortality. He is an advocate for comprehensive gestational justice.
