'Empowering Women in Welding' 🎙️Casey Ross 🎙️Academic Program Director of the Welding Dept at Greenville Technical College at the Greenville Technical College!

You will LOVE this interview with our first welder. She is now a welding instructor and more!

✅ You must be between 22-30 weeks pregnant (in May-July)
✅ Patients may bring TWO guests with them to the appointment.
🚫NO CHILDREN will be allowed to accompany patients to the appointment.
✅ You must bring a PRINTED copy of a permission letter from your doctor stating that it is ok for you to participate in our educational OB scanning lab at Greenville Tech (required).

OB labs are held for teaching purposes with student sonographers who have limited experience scanning OB patients. At this time, we are unable to book appointments for anyone pregnant with twins due to the HIGH level of skill required to scan multiple babies.
