Specializes in Maternal-Fetal Medicine

Ultrasound/Doppler!: Experienced centers with prenatal ultrasound and doppler placental vessel mapping are your best bet to diagnose placenta accreta in a timely fashion and avoid life-threatening emergencies. Starting at 16-20 weeks an experienced maternal-fetal medicine specialist can help you make the right decisions for your health/life. I hope you are having your tubes tied after this pregnancy - too many c/s!
