Maternal-Fetal Medicine
Pregnancy is a time of great joy and anticipation for many women, but it also can produce complications that can affect the health of both the mother and child. When these complications occur, maternal-fetal medicine physicians (perinatologists) step in to help monitor the health of both the child and mother and reduce any risk factors the pregnancy may be exposed to.
