Dr Heather Florescue is an OBGYN in Rochester, NY and works at Women’s Gynecology and Childbirth Associates. Her passion is caring for families who experience pregnancy loss and stillbirth awareness and prevention.

Dr Florescue is championing for major change in the prevention of stillbirth and she alone seems to be the only one in her field. I am hopeful after hearing her speak, others will want to step forward and join her in the fight to end preventable stillbirth as well as help provide better bereavement and grief support to families as they navigate pregnancy after loss.

 

We cover:

  • What is wrong with our current system and why
  • How the US is behind in any standard protocols for prenatal
  • Grief support for mothers after stillbirth
  • Making change to a system that doesn't want to be changed
  • The lack of motivation for other medical professionals to make a difference in stillbirth
  • Her motivation for why she wants to help lead this mission
  • Speaking at the Stillbirth Convention

 

She can be reached via email is [email protected] but I actually like Instagram better. I don’t provide individual consults or advice.

**NOTE: this is always an open platform from the viewpoint of the guest and does not always reflect my beliefs. As always do your own research & use your own judgement on what's best for you. I am not a doctor or a therapist. I am just a real life loss mom describing her experiences with life after loss. This is my real life, and I'm putting it out there so you feel less alone. ***
