A new specialty clinic is coming to Hutchinson to support women with high-risk pregnancies.
Beginning Friday, February 13th, Ascension Via Christi and Hutchinson Regional Medical Center are launching a Maternal-Fetal Medicine clinic on the fourth floor of Hutchinson Regional Medical Center.
The clinic will be led by Dr. Michael Wolfe, an OB-GYN specializing in maternal-fetal medicine. Dr. Wolfe and his team will provide advanced prenatal care, including high-level ultrasounds, fetal echocardiograms, and consultations for complex pregnancies, both in person and virtually.
The clinic will care for patients with pre-existing conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, and autoimmune disorders, as well as pregnancy-related concerns like gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, preterm labor, and multiple pregnancies.
Hospital leaders say bringing these services to Hutchinson will reduce the need for long-distance travel and improve outcomes for mothers and babies.
The clinic is now accepting referrals. Expectant parents interested in care should talk with their doctor. More information is available by calling 316-274-5990.
