Medical Weight Loss
Pediatric Care
The American Academy of Pediatrics advises that children should avoid screens until they are at least 18 months old. “Children don’t learn as well from two-dimensional images,” said Fadiyla Dopwell, M.D., a board-certified developmental-behavioral pediatrician at Pediatrix® Neonatology of Texas. If a baby is watching a screen, there’s not much processing or learning happening in their brain, especially when they are under 2, explained Dr. Dopwell. Research has shown that screen time during the first years of a child’s life seems to be associated with weakened executive functioning when they reach elementary school age. Executive functioning is the ability to stay focused, plan, organize and self-regulate their emotions and behaviors, according to Dr. Dopwell. While it’s impossible to avoid exposing your baby to screens completely, she cautioned against binge-watching videos or shows while your baby is in the same room. “They’re constantly being stimulated by all of the noise, even if they’re not engaging with the show or not turning to it consistently.”
Primary Care
When your child is in the hospital, you want to ensure they receive round-the-clock, standardized, expert care. That’s what Pediatrix delivers with our pediatric hospitalist services. Providing care to children with various illnesses or injuries who require hospitalization, our team of more than 140 pediatric hospitalists and advanced practice providers serves more than 55 hospitals across the nation. We work closely with your child’s primary care physician to ensure the best possible care and outcomes. Additionally, our pediatric hospitalists will keep you and your child’s primary care physician updated on your child’s progress, communicating all necessary information.
Smoking Cessation
Prenatal counseling (also called prepregnancy or pre-conceptual counseling) involves one or more visits with a health care professional, such as an obstetrician, maternal-fetal medicine specialist or certified nurse midwife, before becoming pregnant to identify potential risk factors that need to be addressed and help ensure the woman is in the best possible health prior to pregnancy. Prenatal counseling typically includes a prenatal risk assessment for any potential complications of pregnancy. The health care professional may modify risk factors, such as increasing folic acid intake to reduce the risk of neural tube defects. It also includes counseling on smoking cessation, alcohol reduction and medications that may compromise fetal development. The purpose is to allow a woman to better prepare her body for successful conception and pregnancy and enables her to reduce any health risks before conceiving.
Emergency Care
When your child needs emergency care, our pediatric emergency medicine specialists have the expertise and compassion to care specifically for younger patients.
Infectious Diseases
Immunizations
An evaluation of a woman's current health and medical history to help identify opportunities to better prepare the body for becoming pregnant and to counsel her on risks and management of future pregnancy. The evaluation may include a review of the patient's current lifestyle and medical/obstetric history, including current medications, screening and treatment for any infectious diseases, immunization updates, education and recommendations on behavior modifications to reduce risk factors.

Gynecology
Our MFM specialists are obstetricians who have completed additional education and fellowship training, qualifying them to manage patients with various challenging conditions. Beyond four years of medical school and a four-year residency program in obstetrics and gynecology, our MFM specialists must take and pass the MFM board-certification exam.
Female Infertility
Menopause
Our dedicated OBGYNs treat patients with various obstetric and gynecologic needs with compassion and expertise. From pediatric irregularities and preteen checkups, to pregnancy and menopause management, we provide the following services...
Obstetrics
Critical care obstetrics and delivery is the specialized multidisciplinary practice of managing critically ill obstetric patients during pregnancy, delivery and postpartum. Critically ill pregnant women are generally admitted to the labor and delivery unit equipped with critical care and obstetrical monitoring equipment. The multidisciplinary approach involves neonatologists, obstetric anesthesiologists, critical care physicians, nurses, respiratory therapists and other related specialists working together to protect the lives of both mother and baby.
Pregnancy
Exceptional high-risk pregnancy care with the goal of a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery for mother and baby
Labor and Delivery
Pregnancy places extra stress on a woman's heart and circulatory system, causing the heart to work harder. The labor and delivery experience also adds to the heart's workload.

Neurology
According to the Child Neurology Foundation, one in five children in the United States will live with a neurologic disorder. Neurologic disorders occur when part of the brain or nervous system fails to function properly, triggering physical and/or psychological challenges. They can be present at birth (congenital), primarily caused by gene or chromosome disorders. They can also be developed after birth (acquired), caused by various factors, such as toxins, infections, birth-related complications and traumatic brain or spinal cord injuries.

Mental Health
What I like most about my job is serving as a first responder within the hospital setting for those patients who present with emergent obstetrical or gynecological conditions warranting medical treatment. I enjoy my flexile work schedule. I also find it rewarding to work for a company that values its physicians’ physical and mental health.

Ultrasound
A diagnostic test to screen for chromosome abnormalities and inherited disorders. A sample of amniotic fluid is collected through an ultrasound guided needle inserted into the amniotic sac. The amniotic fluid is sent to a laboratory for analysis.
Radiology
Our maternal-fetal medicine doctors have special training and certification to perform types of ultrasound that may not be available from a radiology service or a general obstetrician. These exams are performed in special situations, not in every pregnancy. Special exams include: Biophysical profile (A focused check of fetal movements and amniotic fluid (the liquid surrounding the fetus) to check on fetal well-being), Cervix length (If the cervix is short, there is a risk of preterm birth and special treatment might be needed), Doppler (Measurement of blood flow through certain blood vessels (umbilical cord, arteries in fetal brain, other blood vessels) to check on fetal well-being), Fetal echocardiogram (A detailed exam of the fetal heart to look for heart defects), 3-D Ultrasound (still pictures that appear 3-dimensional. These are used to get details for certain types of birth defects), 4-D ultrasound (Videos that appear 3-dimensional. These are used to get details of certain types of birth defects).
