At the Clinic, we are strong believers that the connection that occurs between parents and their children is unique and indispensable for the development of fully realized human beings. In various studies, science has shown that parental care affects the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development of individuals. We embrace this notion fully and provide a variety of sessions that enable a healthy bond between parents and children.

During your pregnancy the following scans are available:
- The first trimester scan, which was introduced by the famous doctor Professor Kypros Nicolaides. This is a scan performed between 11 and 13 weeks of pregnancy and aims to identify those with the highest risk of delivering a baby with chromosomal abnormality. The doctors in our Medical Centre collaborate with Harris Birthright Research Centre for Fetal Medicine in London and the programme they use is updated annually. If you are identified as high-risk you have the choice of proceeding with an invasive procedure (CVS or amniocentesis), or with a non-invasive Prenatal blood test. These procedures and the risks surrounding them can be discussed with your doctor.
- The anomaly scan is a scan usually performed around 21-24 weeks of pregnancy and diagnoses congenital abnormalities.
- Finally, should you wish, at approximately 32 weeks of pregnancy, a growth scan and Doppler measurement can be performed to estimate the foetal weight at birth and ensure that your baby is growing well.
Your doctor may test the amniotic fluid and the growth of your baby during routine check-ups.
