As Michigan’s first and only hospital for women, Hutzel Women’s Hospital is
The Destination for Women’s Care.
Physicians in Michigan look to Hutzel as a referral center for their
high-risk patients with complicated conditions. At Hutzel, they find advanced
specialty services and nationally recognized specialists that often aren’t
available at other hospitals.
“As a referral center for complicated cases, we see many conditions that are
rare at other hospitals but are fairly common here,” said Ray Bahado-Singh,
M.D., Director of Obstetric Ultrasound. “Seeing so many of the most complicated
cases helps to build our expertise and ultimately that benefits our
patients.”
Patients also benefit from Hutzel’s internationally known commitment to
research and education. As the home of the National Institutes of Health (NIH)
Perinatology Research Branch, Hutzel Women’s Hospital is recognized by
physicians and researchers across the country as a leader in women’s health.
“Over the years, several groundbreaking discoveries and innovations have been
made at Hutzel through the Perinatology Research Branch,” said John Malone,
M.D., Obstetrics and Gynecology at Hutzel Women’s Hospital. “This reputation
enables us to recruit and maintain a very high caliber of physician and it
enables us to offer patients access to various research protocols and
treatments.”
Not only is Hutzel a national leader in research and innovation, it’s also
one of the top teaching hospitals in Michigan for obstetricians, gynecologists,
and maternal fetal medicine specialists.
“The chiefs of obstetrics and gynecology at many of the major hospitals in
southeast Michigan were trained right here at Hutzel,” Dr. Malone said. “And
we’ve trained most of the maternal fetal medicine physicians and reproductive
endocrinologists in metro Detroit.”
Perhaps because so many physicians received their specialty training at
Hutzel, they often refer their most complicated cases back to the hospital.
Physicians throughout Michigan look to Hutzel Women’s Hospital for the following
services:
- High-risk Pregnancy Care – With Michigan’s only intensive care unit for
expectant mothers, a state-of-the-art birthing center and Neonatal Intensive
Care Unit (NICU), Hutzel is an ideal choice for high-risk obstetrical services.
- Infertility Treatment – Hutzel was the first hospital in Detroit to treat
infertility more than 50 years ago and is still leading the way with the latest
treatments including: in vitro fertilization, artificial insemination, donor egg
procedures and surgical therapies.
- Innovative Gynecological Services – From the latest urogynecological tests
and procedures to minimally invasive and complex surgeries, the sub-specialists
at Hutzel Women’s Hospital work closely with referring physicians from around
the state.
- Prenatal Genetic Testing – Hutzel Women’s Hospital is a national referral
center for genetic testing and treatment of birth defects during pregnancy.
- Maternal Fetal Diagnosis – A joint effort of Hutzel Women’s Hospital and
Children’s Hospital of Michigan, the Maternal Fetal Diagnosis project uses
advanced diagnostic tools and innovative therapies to identify and treat fetal
abnormalities during and after pregnancy.
With nationally recognized experts, innovative diagnostic tools and
specialized therapies, it’s no wonder Hutzel is considered The Destination for
Women’s Care.
