Experience how Butterfly Network is transforming maternal healthcare in South Africa through the Siyakubona ("We See You") Program. Supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and delivered in collaboration with healthcare partners, this initiative equips midwives and frontline clinicians with Butterfly iQ+, enabling Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) for faster, more accessible antenatal care in underserved communities.
Building on the success of the 1,000 Probe Partnership, this program empowers healthcare workers with portable ultrasound technology and hands-on training, helping improve pregnancy assessments, clinical decision-making, and maternal outcomes where access to traditional imaging is limited.
Whether you're a clinician, sonographer, midwife, healthcare leader, or global health advocate, discover how portable ultrasound is expanding access to quality maternal care worldwide.
