5 Benefits of Concierge Prenatal Care

Each year in the United States, nearly 3.6 million newborns join the world, and you’re looking forward to adding to the joyful tally with your own child (or children). Before that happens, however, you first need to navigate your pregnancy.

Pregnancy can be a dizzying time as your body undergoes an incredible amount of change in just nine short months. Whether this is your first pregnancy or you’ve been down this road before, your goal is to pass this time with the least amount of stress possible, especially when it comes to your prenatal care.

At Yunella Women’s Health, we have you covered with our top-notch concierge prenatal care. Under the direction of board-certified OB/GYN and Los Angeles Top Doctor David Seil Kim, MD, PhD, our team’s priority is to minimize stress so that you can enjoy this wonderful and exciting time as you nurture and bring new life into the world.

With that in mind, here’s a look at five of the many benefits of our concierge prenatal care as we work together to build your beautiful family.

1. Timely physician access

Did you know that the average wait time to see an OB/GYN in Los Angeles was 28 days in 2022, which is an increase from 12 days in 2017?

Through our concierge prenatal services, we take physician availability very seriously and we see patients within 48 hours for any pressing concerns during their pregnancies.

Not to mention, our concierge prenatal care also includes direct contact with your pregnancy team, including Dr. Kim, via phone, text, and telehealth.

2. Optimizing pregnancy care through technology

Our practice is equipped with the most advanced technologies available for prenatal care, including:

• 3D/4D ultrasounds
• On-site lab testing for bloodwork, urinalyses, etc.
• Home monitoring equipment, such as blood pressure monitors and fetal movement tracking, for high-risk pregnancies
• Genetic counseling, including cell-free DNA testing, nuchal translucency, and carrier screening

In short, we’ve turned our practice into an oasis of gold standard pregnancy care, all under one roof.

3. Privacy is paramount 

We recognize that pregnancy is a very private time for families and we respect that. We take client confidentiality very seriously under our concierge services and offer:

• HIPAA-compliant telehealth services
• Exam rooms that block electronic signals (Faraday boxes)
• Secure digital document handling
• Pseudonyms to keep your identity private

Through our concierge prenatal care, we also minimize waiting room time and ensure that patients are seen quickly and privately.

4. Tracking your child’s progress with ultrasounds

One benefit that our patients really appreciate is that extra bonding ultrasounds are included in our concierge prenatal care. We offer up to four nondiagnostic ultrasounds after week 20 to women enrolled in our concierge prenatal care, allowing them precious glimpses of their unborn child as they progress.

5. Consistency in your pregnancy care

One of our goals with our concierge prenatal care is to ensure that patients deal with the same team throughout, from early in the pregnancy right on through delivery and beyond.

This means that you have consistency in your care and a team who understands your goals. For example, our team can help you create your personalized birth plan and we do everything in our power to help you realize your dream birth.

Seeing the same friendly (and highly experienced!) faces during your prenatal care lets you know that we’re here with you, every step of the way. 

We offer many more benefits through our concierge prenatal care and we often tailor them to your unique needs and circumstances.
