  • Phenomenal Experience

    “Dr. Viscarello delivered my second son via VBAC in September. He also delivered my first son in 2015. Both experiences were phenomenal. The entire team at Maternal Fetal Care is top notch. When I decided to try for a drug free VBAC this time around, Dr. Viscarello was completely supportive of my choices and educated me on various options that were available to me that I was unaware of despite my own research. I felt like he actually listened to me while a lot of people I know have had non-supportive experiences when thinking about a VBAC. Neither of my pregnancies were high risk but I transferred to their practice after being unhappy with another OB/GYN and it was the best decision I ever made for my pregnancies. I felt so fortunate to be in the care of the staff there and recommend it to anyone.”

  • my baby was the safest in their hands

    “Maternal Fetal care saved my little boys life in my opinion. Being pregnant is scary but becoming a high risk pregnant women is even scarier. The entire staff here made me feel safe and they always always always had my health and my babies health as their number 1 priority. I was scared, emotional and overwhelmed but Dr. V and his staff made me feel confident that I was going to be well taken care of and I felt like my baby was the safest in their hands. I thank God daily that I was fortunate enough to have Dr. V as my doctor. Highly recommend.”

  • Genuine Caring Demeanor

    “Wow what can I say about Dr. Viscarello and his staff? They are truly amazing and Dr. Viscarello LOVES what he does by the amount of time, careful planning and his genuine caring demeanor make your experience one you would not forget. My situation was unique and Dr. Viscarello ensure my care was specific for me and not a one fit all approach which I think was amazing. I know he is in high demand and sometimes can get busy but he will spend as much time with you to explain any issue you might have and he will call you if need be as well. Maternal Fetal Care is one of thee best right now. Kudos to Dr. Viscarello and his team.”

  • You feel like you are his only patient

    “Dr. Viscarello doesn’t just have patients that he cares for; he has devotees. My friends who have used him agree with me that there is a little bit of medical wizardry about him.

    One of the best things (and there are many) about his practice is that he is a solo practitioner. So you know exactly who will be brining your baby into the world, instead of chancing the obstetrical roulette wheel of whichever group doctor is on call.

    He is a pleasant and empathetic guy with a good beside manner. He never once rushed our visits. When you are in the room with him as long as there is no emergency you feel like you are his only patient.”
