About Maternal Fetal Medicine
Maternal Fetal Medicine (MFM) specialists are OB/GYN physicians who have completed a multi-year Fellowship in the specialty of high risk pregnancy. For pregnant women with chronic health problems, MFM specialists work to keep the woman as healthy as possible while her body changes and her baby grows. MFM specialists also care for women who face unexpected problems that develop during pregnancy, such as early labor, bleeding or high blood pressure. In some cases, it’s the baby who is having a complication. If we find birth defects or growth problems, we can start surveillance and treatment before birth and provide monitoring.
