Maternal and Fetal Medicine
Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialists are qualified by training and experience to manage complicated pregnancies.
Their services are complementary to obstetricians in providing consultations, co-management, or direct care for a
complicated pregnancy or for pre-conception counseling. Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialists also function
in collaboration with family physicians and certified nurse-midwives. Most women seek consultation from or care
by a MFM specialist because they are "at risk" and considering becoming pregnant, or otherwise worried about their
pregnancy.
The division of Maternal and Fetal Medicine has outpatient services at the Regional Perinatal Center, at University
Health Care Center. Please visit the website for the Perinatal Center at http://www.upstate.edu/perinatal/ for more information
