Neonatologist

A neonatologist is a healthcare provider who specializes in premature babies or newborns with high-risk or complex health conditions. If your baby is born premature or with an illness or congenital disability, a neonatologist will be the provider managing your baby’s care. A neonatologist may be involved in your prenatal care if the health condition is diagnosed before birth. In some cases, neonatologists are in the delivery room to treat newborn babies immediately after they’re born.
