Overview
The fetal cardiology program at Children’s Minnesota is the largest comprehensive program in the Upper Midwest that includes fetal medicine, neonatal and cardiovascular specialists. When concern for a fetal heart defect or other cardiovascular problem arises, our fetal cardiology team will partner with you to accurately diagnose and create an individualized treatment plan for your patient.
2026 Fetal Symposium
Join us for this one-day symposium on Saturday, September 12, 2026 aimed at improving multidisciplinary collaboration and ultimately optimizing outcomes for both mother and fetus. Learn more and register.
