Expert Care in Fetal Medicine and Prenatal Genetics
For a wide range of inherited and fetal conditions, Brigham and Women’s Hospital provides compassionate, comprehensive testing (including prenatal genetic screenings for those with risk factors), assessment and treatment through our Center for Fetal Medicine and Prenatal Genetics. Our nationally renowned Fetal Therapy Program provides advanced services before birth, including fetal blood transfusions and some minimally invasive surgeries. After the birth, we offer expert care for your newborn and assist families whose babies need specific services. We understand that each family has personal and unique concerns. We work closely with you on each decision and every aspect of care.
