Obstetrics & GynaecologyWords cannot adequately express the level of expertise possessed by Dr. Ushakov. His bedside manner is truly exceptional, and his knowledge and ultrasound skills are nothing short of remarkable. I feel incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to work alongside him, constantly learning from his experience. If any concerns arise, Dr. Ushakov is the first person I would refer my patients to, as I have complete confidence in his ability to manage their needs flawlessly. I have only heard positive feedback from patients who have had the privilege of being under his care, and I will continue to recommend him to anyone in need of reassurance during pregnancy.

Understanding NIPT - Your Guide to Safer Pregnancy Screening
NIPT stands for Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing. It is a type of prenatal screening test that analyses the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragments from the placenta that circulate in a pregnant woman's blood. This test can be done from 10 weeks and provides information about the genetic health of a developing fetus without posing any risk to the pregnancy. It predominantly screens for 3 chromosomal anomalies: Down’s Syndrome (Trisomy 21 or T21 – over 99% detection rate) Edward’s Syndrome (Trisomy 18 or T18 – 97.4% detection rate) Patau’s Syndrome (Trisomy 13 or T13 – 93.8% detection rate) The figures above are the published detection rates for the Harmony NIPT.
