I know a Neonatologist in Fort Smith, AR who came from UAMS. I am not sure what distance they want to travel, but Fort Smith is maybe 1-1.5hours from Fayetteville area. His name is Douglas Seglem. He is an excellent doctor and has good repor with families. Let me know if you need more information on Dr. Seglem.

Subject: Looking for a Ped in Arkansas
I have a couple who is expecting a baby with T18. The ped they identified as one who saw their oldest a few years ago is reluctant to commit to being the ped of record for this baby. The baby probably has a ductal dependent heart defect and the family has been told not to expect her to live more than a few days, but we need to ID someone. Can anyone suggest a ped in Bentonville or Rogers AR, preferably under the Mercy/St Johns system (due to insurance) who may be willing to accept this patient? We will set up hospice/ etc prior to discharge.
Robin
