Fetal Medicine

The majority of pregnancies progress without complications, but there are instances where either the mother or her unborn baby may require specialized care for various reasons. Specialized care in fetal medicine becomes essential when the unborn baby presents abnormalities such as gastroschisis, or when the mother's medical conditions elevate the risk to the baby, as in the case of red cell antibodies or viral infections.
At BirthRight by Rainbow Hospitals, the well-being of your child commences even before birth. In addition to conducting routine fetal checks for all expectant mothers, we offer advanced fetal diagnostic and therapeutic services, encompassing various treatments. Our team includes highly experienced and renowned fetal medicine consultants and specialists, collaborating with other experts like Neonatologists, Geneticists, Pediatric Surgeons, Fetal Cardiologists, and Neurosurgeons within our multidisciplinary approach. Fetal intervention is recommended to ensure an early diagnosis of any potential issues or concerns.
