UCLA Maternal Fetal Medicine

At UCLA We Care for the Most Complex Pregnancies

At UCLA, we care for the most complex mothers and fetuses who may require higher levels of care throughout gestation. We are the premiere regional center with the full complement of world-class pediatric and adult subspecialists, all co-located in the same hospital system. Our comprehensive perinatal-neonatal team meets every two weeks to discuss complex pregnancies to ensure that plans are optimized and communicated. This close collaboration and working relationship facilitates surveillance and timely interventions. We also understand that a pregnant patient is more than the diagnosis that they have been given, and work to ensure a holistic approach to their pregnancy care, from pre-conception to postpartum.
