A physician-led practice focused on hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) and nausea and vomiting in pregnancy.
Morning sickness affects 80% of pregnancies. Up to 25% of those pregnancies have moderate to severe nausea and vomiting that can affect every aspect of life. And about 10% of those have hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) which can have severe consequences for both the pregnant person and the baby.

Dr. Housholder is the world’s leading physician focusing on hyperemesis gravidarum. He works in tandem with your pregnancy health care provider to get you the care you need to keep you and baby healthy. Dr. Housholder is an active researcher collaborating with Dr. Marlena Fejzo to study HG.
OBGYNS and providers throughout the US refer patients to our clinic to receive the best HG care available.
Research shows that nausea and vomiting in pregnancy may progress to HG (hyperemesis gravidarum) due to inadequate care.
“Some pregnant people worry about the effects of medication on their babies, so they wait until they are very dehydrated and malnourished to seek help. We tailor our treatments to our patients’ concerns, because if you don’t get your questions answered, you’re not going to feel better. And that’s what we want. We want you to feel better.” - Dr. Andrew Housholder, MD FACEP
“While treating patients with severe morning sickness and hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) in the ER, I recognized that very few have access to adequate treatment. Patients can get medications for nausea from their obstetricians, but pregnancy health care providers aren’t set up to provide extensive care for nausea and vomiting. At our clinic, you can get the same quality care as in the emergency department, but scheduled, comfortable, and at a fraction of the cost.”
