Cardiac Clinic
This clinic is a combined obstetric/cardiac clinic led by Dr Jennifer Donnelly, consultant obstetrician, Dr Kevin Walsh, a heart specialist (cardiologist) from the Mater, anaesthetists who work in the Mater and the Rotunda who have a specific interest in this problem, and Dr Fionnuala Ní Áinle, consultant haematologist. Women with a known heart condition prior to pregnancy are referred to this clinic early in the pregnancy.
The cardiac support midwife will arrange appointments for you to attend this service and will link up with the cardiac department in the Mater hospital for any tests you need during the pregnancy.
