Our office conducts a wide verity of test to ensure a healthy momma and baby. A few of those tests include:

• Blood type. (Rh Factor)
• Hemoglobin
• We check immunity to certain infections. These typically include rubella and chickenpox unless otherwise documented in your medical history.
• We also test for exposure to other infections like Hepatitis B, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV.

It is important to know that we take your privacy very seriously. If you have brought a partner or a family member into the appointment with you, and there is a portion of your medical history that you don’t want to share with them, please notify your physician privately. Keeping that information to yourself may end up limiting the best possible care.
