Mitera is on your team! We want every surrogacy journey to be successful and each intended parent to ultimately hold a healthy baby in their arms. Our Maternal-Fetal Medicine physicians prioritize protecting the health and well-being of the surrogate and the unborn child.
Who Is a Maternal-Fetal Medicine Doctor?
An MFM doctor is an obstetrician specialist trained and experienced in managing high-risk pregnancies. They are experts in managing medical, genetic, and obstetric complications, and they provide advanced prenatal care for those with increased risks—whether due to health history, pregnancy complications, or, as in the case of surrogacy, the complex nature of third-party reproduction. In a surrogacy journey, multiple parties are involved with various potential risks, involving a maternal-Fetal medicine (MFM) doctor with experience in surrogacy maternal care is critical. At Mitera we include all parties involved. Intended parents are not on the periphery, they are an integral part of the process.
Why Use a Mitera Maternal-Fetal Medicine Doctor?
Our goals for each surrogacy journey are simple:
- Ensure a healthy pregnancy and delivery for each surrogate and baby
- Help expedite Intended Parent clinic approval time
- Prevent delays in a surrogacy journey
- Provide peace of mind
- Increase chances for better outcomes
What Happens Without a Mitera MFM Involvement?
Without a Mitera MFM risk assessment, a surrogate might unknowingly face a higher chance of preeclampsia, or might have a uterine condition that increases the risk of premature birth. These are not just hypotheticals—they are real risks that could affect lives.
We minimize the risks to surrogates and intended parents on their surrogacy journey. Surrogates carry not just a child, but also the dreams of a family. Having an MFM doctor involved offers peace of mind to everyone.
