Introduction
The 2nd Outpatient Center was opened in March 2014 as a specialized obstetrics and gynecology center, and is equipped with the latest medical equipment and provides quality medical services by competent faculty members with rich clinical experience and a large number of specialists. The center provides regular prenatal and postnatal care for mothers waiting for a new life, as well as specialized care for high-risk pregnant women, including management of preterm labor and premature labor, gestational hypertension, and gestational diabetes. We provide the best prenatal care for mothers, including fetal ultrasound, echocardiogram, noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT), chorionic villi examination, and amniocentesis.
We manage high-risk pregnancies and diagnose congenital anomalies, especially in the Fetal Heart Clinic, which opened in April 2016, to diagnose congenital heart disease at an early stage and provide more detailed information on accurate diagnosis and prognosis of newborns after delivery through collaboration with pediatric cardiology and pediatric cardiothoracic surgeons. Our Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology provides the best medical care for the well-being of mothers and the health of their new life.
