Maternal-Fetal Medicine Fellowship

At the OU, our mission is to provide excellent, compassionate, evidence-based maternal-fetal care, teach learners, and conduct research that improves the lives and care of pregnant patients. The goal of the training program is to train physicians in the clinical, research, and academic principles required to:

Advance knowledge of obstetrical, medical, and surgical complications of pregnancy and their effects on both mother and fetus

• Be skilled with prenatal ultrasound and prenatal diagnosis
• Care for women with complicated pregnancies
• Function as a consultant to obstetricians
• Have advanced knowledge of newborn adaptation
• Advance the field in basic and clinical research in MFM

All clinical training occurs under the supervision of the MFM faculty in the Oklahoma Children’s Hospital and at the Oklahoma Children’s Hospital – Norman Specialty Clinic, with the only exclusions being the critical care rotation which occurs in the OU Medical Center Surgical ICUs supervised by the SICU faculty and the Genetics and Genomics rotation which occurs in the Oklahoma Children’s Hospital outpatient facilities and NICU supervised by Medical Genetics faculty.

There is weekly protected time for didactics consisting of a faculty-led lecture series, fellow-led journal clubs, a monthly ultrasound conference, a monthly conference with Neonatology and Pediatric Surgery, and a monthly conference with Neonatology and Pediatric Cardiology.
