Dr. James Okafor

Dr. James Okafor is a maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) specialist who cares for higher-risk pregnancies. MFM is the OB-GYN subspecialty that manages complications such as preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, growth restriction, and other conditions that need closer monitoring, entered through an OB-GYN residency plus a three-year MFM fellowship. He spends his time on detailed ultrasounds, complication management, and coordinating care for pregnancies that need extra attention.

Dr. Okafor reviews the pregnancy-complication content on this site (preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, IUGR, subchorionic hematoma, high-risk pregnancy, and chemical pregnancy guides) plus the early-ultrasound content. He checks that warning signs, monitoring guidance, and "when to call your provider" thresholds reflect current obstetric practice.
