Your obstetric provider may refer you to a maternal-fetal medicine specialist at University of Vermont Health. As experts in managing high-risk pregnancies, we provide advanced diagnostic and treatment approaches — and support, guidance and compassion throughout your pregnancy and delivery.

As the only maternal-fetal medicine program in Vermont and northern New York, we see patients from across the region. Whether you live locally or come to us from a distance, we work closely with your current obstetric provider, who knows you and your pregnancy best.

UVM Health has a strong commitment to providing compassionate care to all individuals. We welcome patients of all races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities and sexual orientations.

• Subspecialty expertise: Maternal-fetal medicine specialists are obstetrician-gynecologists (OB-GYNs) with advanced training in fetal diagnostics and health issues that can occur during pregnancy.
• Team-based approach: Our care team includes nurses and certified nurse midwives who have experience with high-risk pregnancies. We also collaborate with other specialists as needed.
• Advanced care when necessary: For advanced care, University of Vermont Medical Center has the region’s only level 4 maternity center and level 3 neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
• Support services: We offer mental health counseling and help accessing resources to support you and your baby.
