Sometimes a woman's medical problems or family history can have an effect on her unborn baby. Other times, unborn fetuses can have problems of their own. The physicians and staff at the Prenatal Diagnosis Center (PDC) have the special expertise necessary to make sure both you and your baby get the best possible care during your pregnancy. The PDC provides specialized services and testing, comprehensive screening, fetal assessment and genetic counseling to help you and your physician better understand your pregnancy. Tests includes level II ultrasounds, amniocentesis, integrated screening test and chorionic villus sampling (CVS).
The Prenatal Diagnosis Center (PDC) offers you and your partner the option of genetic counseling. Genetic counseling may be helpful to you if you have a known genetic disorder, take medication, if there are diseases that run in your family, or you’ve had a test in your pregnancy that indicates your baby might have a birth defect.
Sometimes, we need to test the health of your unborn baby. The Prenatal Diagnosis Center offers non-stress tests and biophysical profile and amniotic fluid index tests.
We provide a wide variety of services for women who are pregnant and have diabetes, whether you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes or develop diabetes during your pregnancy (gestational diabetes).
