Ensuring good gynecologic health throughout your life—from the teen years to the post-menopausal years—is our specialty.

At Virginia Women’s Center, we think maternal-fetal medicine is so important that we have three specialists on staff. Drs. Troyer, Love and DeMay see patients for high-risk pregnancy, prenatal diagnosis and advanced ultrasound diagnosis. Our ultrasound suites are AIUM accredited.

Genetics is the branch of science that deals with how traits are passed from parent to child through genes. Our genetic counselor works with mothers and couples to explain the array of prenatal testing options available and helps to interpret test results. Our genetic counselor works closely with our maternal-fetal medicine specialists and obstetricians.
All of our on-site ultrasound suites are AIUM accredited.

Bone-density testing is an important aspect of preventing osteoporosis. We use a technology called Dual-energy Absorptiometry-or DXA-to measure bone mineral content and density of specific bone sites most susceptible to fracture. Visit the Bone Health section for more information.
