Dr Diana S Wolfe, MD MPH has a dual academic appointment at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, in the Bronx, New York. She is both Professor in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Women’s Health, Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine and
Professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Cardiology.
She established the MFM Cardiology Joint Program at Einstein/Montefiore Medical Center in 2015 in response to the rising contribution of cardiovascular related morbidity and mortality in pregnancy. The aim was to establish a multidisciplinary programme to optimise the care of high-risk pregnant patients with known or suspected cardiac disease, as there is a real potential for communication gaps when patients are seen separately in contrast with parallel visits by different specialists. She is the co-editor of the book Cardio Obstetrics. She is a member of the Quality Improvement Initiative to develop the Alliance for Innovation in Maternal Health (AIM) Safety Bundle on Cardiac Conditions in Obstetrical Care (CCOC).
She authored the Change Package for this national Safety Bundle and currently is Co-Chair of ACOG District II Cardiac Bundle Development. She is a faculty member of the largest group of specialists in the field of Cardio Obstetrics, Cardiac Problems in Pregnancy, an International Organisation that now meets annually. She is the Co-Founder of the Post Graduate Course at the Society of Maternal Fetal Medicine Titled Cardio Obstetrics where fellows and faculty share their passion, interests, and challenges in Cardio Obstetrics. She is delighted to be a part of this Webinar on Cancer Survivors and pregnancy considerations.
