Fetal and obstetric anesthesia
Our fetal and obstetric anesthesiologists make up an integral part of the care team, meeting with parents and families prior to deliveries and fetal procedures and are available around the clock. Our anesthesiology team develops a plan for each patient based on their specific needs, medical history and type of procedure, making sure mothers and babies are comfortable and safe at all times.
Our fetal and pediatric surgeons can perform many operations in utero or at the time of delivery, including fetoscopic procedures for twin-twin transfusion syndrome, open fetal procedures for myelomeningocele repair, and EXIT procedures, among others. Our care team also assists with labor and delivery, a unique experience for every patient. Our goal is to ensure the most comfortable and stress-free delivery possible for the mother and the best possible outcome for the baby. That’ s why we coordinate closely with our Neonatal Intensive Care and Cardiac Intensive Care units to care for babies immediately after delivery.
