BOARD-CERTIFIED ATTENDING PHYSICIANS
Dr. Mussalli is Board certified in maternal-fetal medicine from Columbia University. He will make a personalized treatment plan for you.
Many (but not all) of our patients are seeking a vaginal birth with or without medication. We have years of experience with this goal and high success.
We championed the Gentle (or family-centered) cesarean at Mount Sinai. Because of us, the hospital introduced clear drapes. Gentle cesarean is our standard technique for all cases except urgent emergencies.
If you had fertility assistance to get pregnant, you will need extra testing. We are experts at IVF needs.
If you have never given birth before, you may have more questions and need extra time in labor. We have all the time you need.
Vaginal Birth After Cesarean: If you have had a cesarean for your first birth and want vaginal for your second, we have proven strategies to guide you.
Being pregnant for the first time over age 35 or 40 benefits from a special approach in regards to focused testing and extra time in labor. The majority of our patients are over 35.
Village Obstetrics accepts late transfers. It’s OK to switch late in pregnancy if your provider is not meeting your needs. Attend our Open House to find out more.
