Fetal Medicine Expert Witnesses in South East

Fetal Medicine is a specialist area of obstetrics focused on the assessment, diagnosis and management of conditions affecting unborn babies during pregnancy. It includes detailed ultrasound examinations, fetal growth monitoring, screening for congenital abnormalities, genetic investigations and the management of complex or high-risk pregnancies. Specialist care may involve fetal interventions, multidisciplinary planning and decisions about the timing and mode of delivery. Independent Fetal Medicine Expert Witnesses can provide specialist clinical opinions on antenatal screening, ultrasound interpretation, missed or delayed diagnosis, fetal monitoring, referral decisions, pregnancy management and standards of care in Clinical Negligence and Personal Injury cases.
