Maternal-Fetal Medicine
Pregnancies are typically developing in a stable, predictable fashion. During this time both the mother and the baby are going through different stages leading to birth. Your fetus grows not only in size, but also develops attributes and changes morphologically over time and it is vital to keep a record of these changes and ensure they are happening orderly.

“Saw them with my first pregnancy in hospital and they were great. When I got pregnant with my 2nd son 2 years later needed to be followed by a high risk dr and saw them again and they remembered me. Very compassionate and knowledgeable. If I decide to have a 3rd will definitely see them again. Great office staff too.”
