Department Summary:
From pioneering a world-renowned fetal cardiology program to achieving the earliest successful fetal cardiac intervention in 2001, the Fetal Care and Surgery Center has been at the forefront of prenatal evaluation, diagnostics, counseling and offering comprehensive care and treatment for more than two decades. Today, we are the most comprehensive fetal intervention center in the Northeast, supported by more than 25 specialties across Boston Children’s to provide a full spectrum of diagnostics, research, and management for confirmed or suspected congenital anomalies.
Our extensive experience in fetal care has shown that the sooner we can accurately diagnose a fetal anomaly, the better the chances of survival and a higher quality of life. That’s why, in addition to our focus on diagnosing, treating, and caring for pregnancies with high-risk fetal conditions, we’re equally committed to cutting-edge research to enhance fetal and newborn medicine.
Our multidisciplinary approach means that you’ll receive a comprehensive care plan built around constant communication with you and your primary obstetrics team and access to a range of diagnostics, interventions and therapies, genetic testing and counseling, and other services.
