OUR FETAL REUNION WITH THE BRIANNA MARIE FOUNDATION

It has been a while since we last held our Fetal Reunion. As you may know, we created the Fetal Reunion when we started our fetal surgeries back in 1998! The Fetal Reunion is a unique opportunity to get to meet the babies or children whom we only knew as fetuses when we cared for their mothers, and to remember those who unfortunately are not with us as well. This year, we are happy to announce that The Brianna Marie Foundation has kindly offered to host our Fetal Reunion during their annual fundraising race.

We provide management for complicated pregnancies with high-risk conditions.

Welcome to the Fetal Institute.

Our group specializes in the assessment, counseling and management of patients with high-risk pregnancies, including those that may need antenatal fetal treatment (Fetal Therapy). Our center serves as a resource to Obstetricians and other Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialists faced with complicated pregnancies.

Using state-of-the-art technology and based on extensive experience, our center can provide counseling, consulting and management for complicated pregnancies, whether the mother, the fetus(es) or both have a particular high-risk condition. Our specialized treatments aim to maximize the likelihood of a healthy outcome for both the mother and the baby.

Conditions We Treat

Providers at The Fetal Institute are highly skilled in managing problems that may arise during pregnancy. Our doctors offer comprehensive care for pregnant women, including expertise for fetal problems in Miami, Florida and nationwide.

Personalized treatment, highly skilled experts

Founded by Dr. Ruben Quintero and Dr. Eftichia Kontopoulos, The Fetal Institute serves as a resource to all Obstetricians and Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialists. The Fetal Institute is a national and international referral center for the assessment and management of complicated pregnancies.

"Dr. Quintero is truly a super hero, he saved our baby's life and my husband and I will forever be grateful for him and his wonderful team! I was diagnosed with Amniotic Band Syndrome at 22 weeks, and he and his staff accommodated us within 2 days for our initial consultation. As soon as you meet him, you can tell that Dr. Quintero is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, and I felt complete confidence in him. He is incredibly thorough, and was able to see that the amniotic bands were wrapped around my baby's hands and umbilical cord (which the original maternal fetal medicine doctor did not detect), and he successfully performed surgery to remove the bands. I am so grateful that we found Dr. Quintero, I would not have trusted anyone else with this surgery."

TFI Patient

I have no words to thank Dr. Quintero. He saved my daughter from a TTTTS. We made everything possible to saved the twins but both were in danger. He saved one and I’m truly in doubt with him for the rest of my live. I just had her last Saturday and I can’t be more grateful to find him. Tania was an amazing piece on this and I never can’t forget everything they did for my baby… never hesitate to get Dr Quintero’s opinion. He’s a wonderful person and even though we already have our baby, we will Miss his care and charming with every visit. THANK YOU FOREVER.

We can’t thank Quintero and his team enough, within days we were in his office determining what to do with our twin girls. I’ll never forget it, it was New Year’s Eve and we were told not that we just had TTTS stage 1 or even that we had TAPS stage 2 but we also had SIUGR at 26+5 weeks. He told us if we waited and just monitored he felt we would have a bad outcome. We went ahead with the surgery that same day, and because of him we made it to 35 weeks when we delivered our ID twin girls. His team is the reason we have both little girls with us today!!!

Dr Quintero is a God-send. He is the smartest, kindest physician. At 19 weeks pregnant, I had the amnio-patch procedure done. Dr Quintero made me feel informed, safe, and genuinely cared for. I’ll never forget the way he hugged me and assured me we would be okay. I cannot recommend Dr Quintero and his team enough!

We will always hold Dr. Quintero and his Team in a special place in our hearts. He is very professional and took care of my identical twin Boys during my high-risk pregnancy. Dr. Quintero & Dr. Kontopoulos, were always very patients and explained to me every single detail during the visits. Thank you so much to the Fetal Institute.
