Maternal Fetal Medicine Fellowship

About the Program

The Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine of the UC Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology has provided advanced training in Maternal Fetal Medicine to qualified physicians for more than two decades.

An outstanding basic research faculty complements an excellent clinical faculty, and together they provide a superb environment in which to train. Every effort is made to balance the training in all aspects of high-risk obstetrics.
