33 NPPES records list midwife (176B00000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Iowa: 1 per 100,000 residents against 1.8 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Davenport has 3 of them (9%).

A record is a registration a provider made and keeps up to date: it shows neither that the provider is licensed nor that they still practice there. The state's own license search is the check.
