MY PRENATAL CARE
Prenatal Visits
While every patient and her care are unique , patients are generally seen every four weeks until 28-32 weeks of pregnancy . From 32 to 36 weeks , we will want to see you every two weeks , then weekly after 36 weeks . During your prenatal care , you will have the opportunity to meet other physicians and advanced practice providers in the practice .
Personalized Care
Pregnancy is filled with exciting moments , from seeing your positive pregnancy test to laying eyes on your baby for the first time . But for some women , pregnancy can be a confusing and stressful journey . Our team of physicians , nurse midwives , nurse practitioners , and nurses is here for you every step of the way .
Also , our perinatal nurse navigators can provide the extra care , education , and support you need . From conception to postpartum care , navigators can provide :
