Maternal and Fetal Medicine

Maternal and Fetal Medicine is a specialized branch of obstetrics that focuses on the health of expectant mothers and their unborn babies. It involves monitoring and managing pregnancy complications, such as high blood pressure or diabetes, to ensure a safe pregnancy and delivery. Specialists in this field, known as maternal-fetal medicine doctors, provide advanced care through prenatal testing, ultrasound, and consultations, addressing both the mother's and baby's health needs. Their goal is to improve outcomes for both, ensuring a healthy start for the baby and safeguarding the mother's well-being during and after pregnancy.
