Post-Partum Support
The post-partum period is an important time to continue care as it pertains to pregnancy. Westar OB/GYN routinely sees our new mothers back at one week and six weeks post-partum. We also encourage our new mothers to take advantage of Mount Carmel’s Home Care visits by experienced perinatal nurses. Screening for post-partum depression, a very prevalent condition is an important aspect of these visits.
High Risk Pregnancy
“High Risk Pregnancy” is a broad term encompassing a variety of pregnancy-related issues ranging from high blood pressure to gestational diabetes. Most of these issues can be handled by an OB/GYN, some may need to be co-managed by a perinatologist. Westar OB/GYN physicians have a close collaborative partnership with the perinatologists at Mount Carmel St Ann’s.
Vaginal Birth after Cesarean Section (VBAC)
Westar OB/GYN physicians are well-known for their support of VBAC. Because we practice at Mount Carmel St Ann’s, a level III perinatal care center with in-house anesthesia, obstetricians, and neonatal personnel, we have the resources available to support mothers who are attempting a VBAC.
