  • Dr. Susan Dalton specializes in maternal-fetal medicine, caring for patients throughout the entire spectrum of high-risk pregnancies. With advanced training in fetal diagnosis and treatment, Dr. Dalton offers a range of specialized procedures, including chorionic villus sampling (CVS), amniocentesis (a test that samples amniotic fluid), cervical cerclage (a procedure that places a stitch around the cervix), and complex cesarean sections. Her goal is to provide expert, compassionate care to ensure the best possible outcomes for both mother and baby.

    Dr. Dalton is currently accepting new patients for high-risk OB visit types and preconceptions with high-risk diagnoses. To schedule an appointment, please call 801-581-8425 or log in to MyChart.

    Dr. Susan Dalton received her medical degree from the University of Florida and finished her OB/GYN residency at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She then completed her specialized fellowship training in high-risk pregnancy (maternal-fetal medicine) at the University of Utah, where she now teaches as an assistant professor in the Division of OB/GYN-MFM at the Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine.

    Her current research interests involve imaging in adverse pregnancy outcomes, genetic adverse pregnancy outcomes, and nutrition in pregnancy. This includes the evaluation of image findings for fetal diagnosis and adverse pregnancy outcomes in collaboration with the Department of Radiology. The project spans the maternal-fetal spectrum from fetal conditions like birth defects to maternal conditions such as the placental accreta spectrum (PAS).
