Cord Blood Banking Education

All in-person prenatal classes, hospital tours and outpatient support groups at Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center, Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women & Newborns, and Sharp Grossmont Hospital are canceled until further notice. We are closely monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak with health officials at all levels to determine when in-person events can resume.

In the meantime, we are offering one-on-one appointments over the phone with expectant parents. Please register below and the instructor, Greg Steinberg with StemCyte, will contact you. You can also contact him directly at 214-587-1980 or gsteinberg@stemcyte.com to set up an appointment.

As part of our commitment to being the best place to receive care, Sharp HealthCare has partnered with StemCyte, the leader in cord blood collection and banking, to provide this important service to our patients. During your pregnancy, there are many decisions to make as you prepare for your new addition. One of those decisions is whether to save your baby's umbilical cord blood stem cells.

This appointment is designed to provide information and materials for expectant parents to help them make an educated decision on the best cord blood banking option for their family.
