Ensuring YOU + BABY Are Happy and Healthy

Ensuring YOU + BABY Are Happy and Healthy

Mary’s Center understands that while pregnancy is an exciting time, it can also be a time filled with questions and uncertainty. We are committed to providing high-quality, equitable health care to all who come through our doors, which is the driving force behind our constant progress and innovation to ensure that YOU + BABY are happy and healthy. Our dedicated team will meet you where you are with medical, dental, and mental health care all under one roof to help you prepare for a successful pregnancy, labor, and delivery.

Mary’s Center has different models of prenatal care to ensure that you receive quality care regardless of your schedule, location, or finances. All models include regular check-ups, evaluations, and screenings to monitor your and your baby’s health. When you and your provider meet for the initial check-up, you will determine together which of the below models best fits your lifestyle and pregnancy:

Prenatal Care+

You will have a combination of individual in-person, virtual, and facilitated telemedicine visits that provide an enhanced ability to create a personal connection with your provider through face-to-face communication.

Facilitated telemedicine is the modern “house call.” A medical assistant will come to your home or other setting of your choosing and link you to your provider through video. The medical assistant comes with laboratory and other diagnostic equipment to give you the flexibility of completing your prenatal care from the comfort of your own home.

With the Prenatal Care+ model, you can avoid many of the challenges of coming into the clinic often, such as transportation, childcare, and work schedules.

CenteringPregnancy Program

Centering is a model of group care that is designed to empower you and your family, strengthen your relationship with your provider, and build community through facilitated discussions and engaging activities.

CenteringPregnancy brings together expecting parents who are due within the same month for their prenatal care. At this time, Mary’s Center is offering CenteringPregnancy virtually.

Ask your care team if you are eligible to participate in CenteringPregnancy or call 202-545-2035 for more information.
