KOFINAS PERINATAL is totally committed to you, the patient, and the health of your unborn baby. We carefully combine all the elements to ensure your optimal care, including state of the art services, a warm environment, and a compassionate staff.

We recognize the emotional frustration, which can often accompany pregnancy complications, and this leads our staff to treat each patient with the understanding and care she deserves. Furthermore, at Kofinas Perinatal we have realized long ago that most pregnancy complications arise from an unhealthy placenta. Even the NIH (National Institutes of Health) recently has declared that the placenta is the most neglected organ in human medicine. As a result and because of extensive research over the last 20 years, we have developed unique and succesful protocols that help us keep most placentas healthy; this is the only way we know that can provide our patients with a healthy neonate and a healthy future adult.
