Maternal fetal medicine
We care for high risk pregnant women and women with chronic illnesses considering pregnancy. Our comprehensive diagnosis and management are provided by physicians who have upon graduation, completed two to three years of a maternal fetal medicine fellowship and four years of obstetrics and gynecology residency training. Our providers understand the unique challenges of a high risk pregnancy. Our focus is on the health and well-being of the mother and fetus. If needed, our providers work with other medical specialists to coordinate care during pregnancy and birth, and throughout the newborn period. This multispecialty system of care allows for the best outcomes in a complicated pregnancy.
