Choosing the right pediatrician is one of the most important decisions you will make as a new parent. Prenatal visits give you the opportunity to meet your baby’s doctor before birth, ask questions, and learn what to expect in your baby’s first days and weeks. They are an excellent way to prepare for parenthood and begin building a trusted relationship for your child’s care.

And here’s what you can expect to gain in return — peace of mind, more confidence, helpful resources, and a welcoming connection with our team. We look forward to meeting you!

Answers to your prenatal visit questions

Pregnancy is a time filled with questions, especially for first-time parents. Prenatal visits allow you to get answers from a trusted source before your little one arrives. This visit is usually scheduled during the last trimester, but can be arranged earlier if you prefer.

What happens during a prenatal visit

Your prenatal visit should ideally take place during the third trimester of pregnancy, before your baby arrives.
