Maternal Fetal Medicine Physician

NORTON CHILDREN’S MATERNAL-FETAL MEDICINE  is seeking a fellowship-trained and board-certified or board eligible  physician to join its growing practice in Louisville,  Kentucky. This provider will join a comprehensive, collaborative  team of nine maternal-fetal medicine physicians, high-risk  OB/GYN physicians, 10 advanced practice registered nurses,  two advanced practice registered nurses certified as diabetes  educators, a clinical nutritionist, two nurse navigators, two social workers, two genetic counselors and 27 sonographers, four of  whom are certified in fetal echocardiography.    Our physicians provide services at Norton Hospital, which is  connected by pedway to Norton Children’s Hospital, a Level  I Pediatric Trauma Center with a 101-bed Level IV neonatal intensive care unit (NICU); and at Norton Women’s & Children’s  Hospital, which offers a full range of pregnancy and newborn  care and has a 44-bed Level III NICU. Both hospitals offer  24-hour obstetrics hospitalist services. At Norton Children’s  Perinatal Center, we provide collaborative outpatient care from  the beginning of a high-risk pregnancy diagnosis to the followup  care of a newborn, all at the same location. That means  many women with high-risk pregnancies — especially those  who travel hundreds of miles for care — can consolidate their  appointments. Norton Children’s Maternal-Fetal Medicine also  offers telemedicine services and has outreach clinics in Bowling  Green, Elizabethtown and Paducah, Kentucky.
