What is Foetal Medicine?

The specialty area of medicine known as "foetal medicine" is concerned with the growth and well-being of your unborn child while they are still inside your womb. In order to identify, diagnose, and treat any issues or concerns that may come up during pregnancy, our professionals collaborate closely with expectant mothers. Foetal medicine helps guarantee your child has the best start possible, from routine screenings to sophisticated evaluations.

  • any issues brought up during standard prenatal scans

We recognize how stressful it can be to have your pregnancy classified as "high-risk." Our experts are dedicated to walking with you, responding to your inquiries, and developing a care plan that meets the requirements of your family.
