Lancaster Maternal Fetal Medicine (LMFM) recently began seeing patients at its new office at 2568 Lititz Pike, which is located in the old Members 1st Federal Credit Union building in Neffsville.

During five years of growth, the practice has expanded to several locations in Lancaster and Lebanon counties. The practice brings specialized care to pregnant mothers experiencing a number of conditions that characterize their pregnancy as high-risk, such as diabetes, pregnancy with multiples, recurrent pregnancy loss or high blood pressure. As the new location opens, LMFM will close the old, leased space at 108 Foxshire Drive, Lancaster.

Since 2017, Lancaster LMFM has been providing care to local families as well as clients from across the country seeking advanced care. The new location will be housed in a newly renovated and expanded former bank, which the practice bought in 2021. LMFM's services include state-of-the-art 2D/3D and 4D ultrasound scans, surgical pregnancy loss prevention, pregnancy monitoring, pre-pregnancy counseling, and genetic counseling and diabetes management.

The private medical office has two nationally and internationally renowned perinatologists, Drs. Robert Larkin and Christian Macedonia. A central part of their goal is to be a model practice to reduce the high maternal morbidity and mortality rate in America, especially among people of color. One of the ways they strive to accomplish this goal is to keep every avenue for access to care open; they welcome self-referrals. LMFM also has a special billing program for uninsured and underinsured patients.

LMFM has highly-trained and certified sonographers who provide both routine and specialized ultrasounds. The practive is certified and accredited in all five of the American Institute for Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) areas of OB imaging.

LMFM is a pioneer in 3D ultrasound, telemedicine and genomic medicine. Macedonia performed a 3D ultrasound on a living fetus in December of 1991 at the National Institutes of Health as a government researcher.

Providers include two LMFM physicians, a nurse practitioner, a physician assistant and a high-risk nurse who has a Master of Science in Nursing. The motto of the disabled veteran-owned small business is "Where all are welcome and the future is born."
