FETAL GROWTH

Fetal Growth Scan
Monitoring the growth of your fetus throughout the pregnancy is an important milestone. Usually, growth is assessed on routine scans such as the anatomy scan. However, sometimes, growth is assessed on independent scans if there are reasons to suspect growth may not be quite normal.
Fetal growth is assessed by measuring fetal head (biparietal diameter and head circumference: BPD, HC), abdomen (abdominal circumference: AC) and femur (femur length:FL). The HC, AC, and FL measurements are then used to calculate the estimated fetal weight (EFW).
The amount of amniotic fluid, placental position and appearance will also be assessed.
It is usually performed at 32-34 weeks but it can be done earlier or later, depending on the clinical concerns.

I had the absolute pleasure of attending this clinic recently. I was referred to this clinic by an OB-GYN in St. Catharines and drove to Hamilton in order to have what was explained to me as “endometriosis mapping”.I would first like to describe myself as being an extremely anxious person when it comes to anything medically related.Now with that being addressed, upon entering this clinic, the atmosphere was spectacular. I could immediately tell that the owner took great pride in the way that this clinic was presented. Both the waiting room and the bathroom were beautiful and empowering. I found this clinic aesthetically pleasing and calming.As for my procedure, it truly exceeded all of my expectations. Dr. Leonardi and the sonographer were amazing. I received more information in 30 minutes than I ever have about my reproductive system.I am extremely grateful that I had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Leonardi. I truly believe that what he has established with his clinic is ground breaking for women with endometriosis.I witnessed my mother struggle for years with this disease. Seeking out medical help and almost always being ignored. Thank you Dr. Leonardi for being so informed and accessible.

My experience at SUGO was informative and efficient. The staff were kind and I was seen on time.My experience with Dr. Leonardi was by far the most valuable care I have received in relation to Endometriosis. Dr. Leonardi was straight forward and thorough when answering my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Leonardi and SUGO for concerns related to Endometriosis. Thank you for your dedication and hard work.

My OB referred me to SUGO for a third trimester growth scan. The check-in process was smooth. My sonographer Lee was welcoming and friendly, keeping me informed throughout the scan. I also appreciated them accommodating my mother in for a quick viewing at the end, which I know can be difficult elsewhere during COVID. I also noticed how modern and well-kept their equipments are. Overall very satisfied with my experience at SUGO!

I was referred to SUGO from my OBGYN, and was immediately impressed with the overall cleanliness of the office, and kindness of all the staff at the office. Dr. Leonardi immediately made me feel comfortable as his patient. He is considerate, trustworthy, kind, and kept me informed throughout the process. As women we go through so much and it can be stressful, but I felt very reassured with him as my Dr. You are in good hands with Dr Leonardi and all the staff at SUGO!
