Dr. Ruben Quintero
& The Fetal Institute
Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) can occur when babies share a placenta and blood flows unevenly between them. The Fetal Institute’s guide explains the condition, how it is assessed and treatment approaches.
Dr. Quintero and Dr. Eftichia Kontopoulos cared for my sons before they were born. I share their center here as part of our family’s experience.
