If you have a high-risk pregnancy, your provider discusses how often you should schedule prenatal visits for closer monitoring.
During your initial prenatal care appointment at Nova Women’s Health, the providers review your personal and family medical histories and complete a physical exam. They also perform a pelvic exam to assess your reproductive health.
