Diana S Wolfe, MD MPH is an Associate Professor in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Women’s Health, Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine and Assocaite Professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Cardiology. She established the MFM Cardiology Joint Program in 2015 in response to the rising contribution of cardiovascular related morbidity and mortality in pregnancy. The aim was to establish a multidisciplinary program to optimize 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. Patients are at all stages of their reproductive lives including preconception, pregnancy and postpartum. She works closely with the department of Cardiology both in the outpatient and inpatient setting to establish delivery plans and continued care postpartum. In addition, Dr. Wolfe has worked in global health, most recently in Butare (Huye), Rwanda, serving as MFM subspecialist in the Human Resources for Health (HRH) program, directed by the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) and the Ministry of Health (MOH) of Rwanda. She has volunteered as pregnancy counselor for Planned Parenthood and Peace Corps service in Mali, West Africa in a rural village for two years. She continues to use language skills mastered in the Peace Corps and in Peru. Bombara and Spanish are widely used in the Bronx, NY where she currently practices as Maternal Fetal Medicine Subspecialist.
