At the UAB St. Vincent’s Birmingham Birthing Suites, our obstetrics/gynecology (OB/GYN) doctors provide care before, during, and after your pregnancy. Our care team provides personalized support and respects your preferences for your birthing experience.
Every appointment with your doctor starts with a conversation. We listen, explain, and then provide expert care. If you need advanced care, we can connect you with one of our maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) specialists.
Having your baby in our Birthing Suites also means that you have access to our many experienced pediatricians, pediatric specialists, and emergency pediatric care providers at UAB St. Vincent’s Birmingham.

Your MFM specialist listens to understand your preferences and concerns and works together closely as a team with you and your OB/GYN doctor.
Our MFM specialists provide advanced diagnostic tests and care during your pregnancy, to help manage conditions and provide services such as:
- Birth abnormalities
- Carrying multiples
