Pregnancy should be an exciting and joyous time, but complications can cause significant distress and anxiety. Women with a high-risk pregnancy or gestational diabetes are often cared for by maternal and fetal medicine doctors, who specialize in providing comprehensive support for complicated pregnancies.
Palo Alto Medical Foundation’s maternal and fetal medicine doctors help women and their families understand the complications, and work to achieve the best possible outcome. Many of our doctors are members of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine.
