Hello...any recommendations for a perinatologist or maternal fetal medicine specialist? I just found out I'm pregnant and I am HIGH RISK. I live in Newport Beach. Warm regards and thank you!
Magella Medical Group is in Newport Beach, affiliated with Hoag. I have been very happy with them.

Dr. Kurtzman. He is associated with Hoag. His office is in Irvine near the Spectrum. I saw him and really like him and his staff. He was a rec from my OB.
