Genetic counseling

Genetic counselors, who work closely with medical geneticists on staff at the Medical College, are available to help patient families understand genetic disorders, discuss prenatal testing options and determine risks to future pregnancies. Genetic counselors also can help connect patient families to support and educational resources.

Medical ethics counseling

Sometimes, pregnancies involving maternal or fetal health issues can force families to make difficult moral or ethical decisions. The Fetal Concerns Center offers compassionate, expert counseling to help families navigate their way through this decision-making process.

Palliative care

Even after everything medically possible has been done, difficult decisions sometimes must be made. The Fetal Concerns Center is a world leader in palliative care practices and can help the patient family plan how they want their baby cared for. This plan can be used at any hospital where the child will be born.
