Luminis Health Maternal and Fetal Medicine Easton

Our team has expertise in all aspects of high-risk maternal and fetal medical conditions and/or obstetrical complications.  By using state-of-the-art ultrasound and diagnostic tests, we evaluate your health and the health of your baby before delivery.  Our specialists then work closely with you and your OB-GYN to develop a plan of care tailored to your personal needs and medical history.

Our goal is to ensure you understand your medical conditions and the options available to you in order to have the best possible outcome of your pregnancy.

Our practice offers a full spectrum of prenatal diagnosis and care for you and your baby from conception until birth. Our experienced physicians, genetic counselors, sonographers and nurses ensure the best possible care in a warm and caring environment.

Obstetricians refer patients to us for many reasons. These may include management of twins or triplets, determining carrier status of various genetic conditions, monitoring you for incompetent cervix and pre-term labor, counseling for age related risks, screening for Down syndrome and many other issues. Sometimes a single sonogram is enough to set your mind at ease. Other times we will continue to see you throughout your pregnancy.

Our team of physicians and counselors work closely with your obstetrician. Following each visit to our office, a report of your sonogram and any recommendations from our physicians, are sent to your obstetrician. At each visit with your obstetrician, you can discuss with him/her the findings and progress of your pregnancy. Your obstetrician remains your primary care-giver and will continue to see you for your regular visits and in most cases the delivery of your baby.

Our services include:

• Amniocentesis & CVS: Amniocentesis and Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) are invasive prenatal tests that are most commonly performed to evaluate the fetus for chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome.

• Ultrasonography: Our skilled sonographers use diagnostic imaging (ultrasound) technology to help increase the information available to your physicians.

• Genetic Counseling and Testing: Those at risk of an inherited disorder are advised of the implications and the nature of the disorder, the chance of recurrence, and their options for management and family planning.

• Fetal Echocardiography: Patients with risk factors for fetal congenital heart disease should have a detailed fetal echocardiogram performed and evaluated by one of our physicians.

• Diabetes Education and Monitoring: Because diabetes requires day-to-day knowledge of nutrition, exercise, monitoring, and medication, our staff stands ready to assist you with maintaining diabetic control, reducing risk factors for your baby.

• Antenatal Testing: Antenatal screening and diagnostic screening, to include biophysical profile and fetal nonstress testing, helps to increase the level of information available to your physicians to help ensure the health of both you and your baby.

• Preconception Counseling: We work with you to identify and reduce social, behavioral, environmental, and biomedical risks to your fertility and pregnancy outcome.
