Do You Want To Know About The Great Resources Available To You For A Healthy Pregnancy & Postpartum?
Then you are in the right place!
Welcome to the Knoxville Pregnancy & Postpartum Series!
Hi! I’m Dr Emily Pace!
I created the Knoxville Pregnancy & Postpartum Series because every day I hear from my patients that they don’t know where to start when it comes to finding great resources for pregnancy & after birth.
But because of the work that I do, I knew that these valuable and helpful resources existed, and I decided to bring them all together in one place to support healthy pregnancy & postpartum in our community.
