Concierge postpartum care
Dr. Chowa
EMCare2U
Website: emcare2u.com/postpartum
My name is Dr. Chowa, I am a concierge physician and the owner of EMCare2U in Atlanta Georgia. I primarily provide comprehensive in home postpartum care for moms within the city. My mission is to support and keep moms safe during one of the most dangerous times after pregnancy. I also most recently published the book, “What to Expect Next” a postpartum guide that every one of my moms receives when working with me. Becoming a mom to my daughter opened my eyes to the challenges women face in those first months. It was the encouragement and advice from those around me that really made a difference and helped push me to do what I now currently do.
