Obstetrics

Finding out you’re pregnant is an incredibly special time but also a time that can lead to some apprehension. Our doctors and midwives work together to support you and your partner through all aspects of your pregnancy care and we are committed to helping you achieve the best outcome.

Our specialists are supported by an exceptional team of highly skilled midwives who provide extensive antenatal & postnatal education and support.

If you have a question or concern during your pregnancy, need help with settling tips for your baby or advice on breast or formula feeding our midwives are only a phone call away.


We provide:

• Pre-pregnancy counselling
• Complete antenatal care for both low risk patients and patients with complex medical needs
• Dating ultrasound
• Management of labour & delivery including vaginal delivery, caesarean delivery and VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarean)
• Postnatal care

 


Additional services include:

• Hypnobirthing education with Sammy (additional cost)
• Postnatal support with Mandy – Blissful Beginnings

 


Our doctors deliver at Burnside War Memorial Hospital and being onsite means they are on hand at a moments notice. Burnside also have dedicated hospital based midwives who assist in antenatal education, individualised care throughout labour & delivery and postnatal care of both you & your baby.

Very occasionally it may be necessary to change the hospital we plan for you to deliver at to either the Women’s & Children’s Hospital (WCH). If this is the case you will still remain a private patient under the care of our doctors.


With the understanding that every pregnancy is different, you can trust that we will provide you with the latest medical advice personalised to your journey.
