It’s about choice. Your choice. Choose your birth preference - from hypnobirthing with no intervention to pain-free planned analgesia or elective caesarean section - I support your choice.
It’s about experience. In a private hospital, only the most senior clinician is your caregiver. Be it a Paediatrician, an Anaesthetist or an Obstetrician, we get to know you and you get to know us.
It’s about continuity. Having a baby doesn’t have to be scary. I want you to feel nurtured and cared for. Familiarity is comforting, so you can have my personal mobile phone number to ensure you never have trouble reaching me. I want to be at your delivery.
It’s about respect. Private hospitals have a generous respect for the time you might like or need for birthing, bonding, breastfeeding and bouncing back. You also have your own private room.
It’s about the perks. Would you like a single room? Would you like your partner to stay with you? That’s private. Do you want chips with your gourmet burger? Or perhaps it's bubbles with your cheese board? That’s private, too.
A boutique service at an affordable price. I believe in Private Health Care and the value added to your experience by going private. I want to make it accessible to you and do everything that I can to be transparent and affordable.
The 28-week Pregnancy Management Fee (PMF) covers the care you will receive from me, your specialist, who is on call and available to you for the full duration of your pregnancy.
Please email or call my office for a full schedule of fees. I will supply all the financial information to you prior to your first visit so that you feel at ease.
I recommend booking your first appointment as early as possible in your pregnancy to make sure that we can accommodate you. I will ask you what your due date is when you book in with me, so please keep track of the first day of your last period so that I can calculate this.
I like to get you in for your first appointment at around nine to ten weeks gestation. This is when you will meet me, your obstetrician. You’ll also meet a midwife, get to know us and undergo some initial measurements and tests.
I may need to see you as early as six weeks if you have a complicated fertility or obstetric history. Some women with significant health issues need a consultation before they fall pregnant.
If you feel that you need more appointments or additional psychological support, be reassured that you will get it. I see women in unscheduled visits on a daily basis.
From pregnancy and antenatal care through to birth and postnatal care, I am here to provide professional, holistic support to you and your baby.
