PBS documentary series "Twice Born" features Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment

In spring 2015, a gripping, three-part documentary series called “TWICE BORN: Stories from the Special Delivery Unit,” aired on PBS, offering the first-ever look inside the Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and its unique Garbose Family Special Delivery Unit.

Exciting Update! On Sept. 21, 2016, at the 37th Annual News and Documentary Emmy® Awards, the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences awarded PBS with an OUTSTANDING SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMMING Emmy for Twice Born!

All three full episodes are available on Amazon. You can also order a DVD of the complete series.
