“We would like to deeply thank the staff of the Cottage Medi-Clinic Hospital for all their kindness and commitment in assuring the successful birth of our daughter,” Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt tell PEOPLE in an exclusive statement.

PEOPLE reports that Angelina and Brad’s obstetrician from Los Angeles, Jason Rothbart, M.D. was assisted by the local staff of the Cottage Medi-Clinic Hospital.

“Angelina underwent a scheduled cesarean due to breech presentation. The baby was a healthy 7lbs.

The staff, nurses and doctors I worked with at the Cottage Medi-Clinic Hospital were amazing, it was a team effort,” Jason Rothbart M.D., tells PEOPLE exclusively.
