High Risk Pregnancies

Although pregnancies are natural and routine, complications do arise from time-to-time. At Ankura Hospital, we understand the possible complications and advise expectant mothers accordingly. Various factors can contribute to high risk pregnancies – such as age; smoking, drinking and drugs; a prior medical history; certain genetic conditions; and multiple pregnancies. With state-of-the-art infrastructure and a dedicated team of specialists to assist high risk pregnancies, we remain fully committed to delivering the best of care to ensure we minimize and manage all the risks associated with your pregnancy.
