An Obstetrician deals with women during pregnancy and for a short time after pregnancy. Obstetricians also monitor and care for the health of the fetus. They perform regular ultrasounds, generally during the 12th week and 20th week of pregnancy to determine the health of the fetus. Exams are performed on a regular basis during pregnancy to identify any complications such as ectopic pregnancy, fetal distress and pre-eclampsia (high blood pressure). They perform vaginal deliveries and some deliver by surgical Cesarean when necessary.A gynecologist is devoted to the reproductive care of women from the time she gets her first period to post-menopause.They handle all womens health concerns including routine well woman care and Pap smears, breast problems, uterine or vaginal infections, cancer of the reproductive organs, fertility problems, contraception, and more. They also perform surgical procedures such as tubal ligations and hysterectomies. Some procedures, such as hysterectomies, utilize the state-of-the-art da Vinci Xi surgical system.
