Our Elizabethtown office allows you to get regular care for your complex pregnancy without always traveling to Louisville. The office is staffed by our maternal-fetal medicine specialists and highly trained sonographers who provide the same level of care as our Louisville offices.

Many patients can deliver at their home hospital and receive follow-up care for themselves or their baby in Louisville. If you’ve been referred to Norton Children’s Maternal-Fetal Medicine, you can deliver with your chosen obstetrician. Maternal-fetal medicine specialists, obstetricians and pediatric specialists work as a team to determine the best plan of care for mother and baby.

Maternal-fetal medicine specialists focus on your unborn baby’s health as well as your well-being. Congenital anomalies detected while you’re pregnant could mean your baby needs specialized care before, during and after delivery.

How We’ll Care for Your Complex Pregnancy, Delivery and Newborn

  • Our caring team of over 10 highly experienced maternal-fetal medicine physicians ensures easier access to expertise for your complex pregnancy.
  • Our compassionate patient navigators who are registered nurses provide one-on-one support and guide you through your pregnancy care, including coordinating appointments.
  • Maternal-fetal medicine offices in downtown Louisville and  St. Matthews, as well as in the Kentucky cities of Bowling Green, Elizabethtown and Paducah, all provide the same level of specialized care.
  • Deliver down the hall from the Norton Children’s Hospital’s Level IV neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) — the highest level in Louisville and Southern Indiana — or the Level III NICU at Norton Women’s & Children’s Hospital.
  • Norton Children’s Perinatal Center offers expertise in care for high-risk pregnancies, including neonatal follow-up, ultrasounds, the Norton Maternal Opiate and Substance Treatment Program and the Wendy Novak Diabetes Institute Perinatal Program.
