Our team consists of highly skilled subspecialist doctors who offer individualised care for pregnant women and their families when there are concerns about the health of their unborn baby.

Our Services

Our ultrasound scans are performed to the highest international standards and women are supported by informative and sensitive counselling services.

PRENATAL SCREENING

Screening tests are used to identify women with an increased chance to have a baby with certain chromosomal abnormalities. These can be performed in both the first and second trimesters of pregnancy.

MONITORING FETAL GROWTH AND WELL BEING

Some babies may not grow at the appropriate rate for their gestation. This needs evaluation to know the cause and frequent serial monitoring with Doppler flow studies.

FETAL CARDIOLOGY

Refers to a detailed scan of fetal heart.

PRENATAL DIAGNOSIS

Amniocentesis and Chorionic Villi Sampling (CVS). These diagnostic procedures allow for the detection of chromosomal abnormalities and genetic disorders, enabling informed decision-making.

PRENATAL TREATMENT

Intrauterine blood transfusion, a lifesaving procedure for fetuses diagnosed with severe anaemia, often due to Rh isoimmunisation or other conditions. This procedure involves transfusing blood directly into the fetal circulation, typically via the umbilical vein, to correct anaemia and support the fetus until birth.

Our team provides expert management for the unique challenges of twin and multiple pregnancies, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both mothers and babies.
