Ways I provide care:
Shared Care
Shared care is where I share your antenatal care with another health practitioner. Typically, shared care with a GP Obstetrician is best suited to patients requiring an elective Caesarean section and/or patients who live “out of town”. I am also happy to share antenatal care with our practice midwife Kelly. For public patients, shared care is also possible with the midwifery group practice (MGP) or Bunbury hospital midwives. You will see both your GP or midwife and your obstetrician at different times throughout your pregnancy. For those with private health insurance wishing to birth at a St John of God hospital in Perth, shared care may be available with us and your Perth Specialist Obstetrician.
Specialist Obstetrician Lead Care
Choosing a Specialist Obstetrician is all about receiving the best possible care for you and your new baby. My special interest is management of high risk pregnancy such as women with multiple medical issues, multiple pregnancy and women aiming for a vaginal birth after a previous Caesarean section.
As I have found out personally and see daily, a woman’s pregnancy and birth doesn’t always go according to plan so having an experienced expert on hand can be incredibly reassuring. A clear plan and the right doctor to manage your pregnancy and birth can help you achieve the shared goal of a healthy mum and baby.
You can trust that I understand your needs and appreciate that your pregnancy and birth should be a rewarding experience. If you are pregnant, please email me and see if I help you with your exciting journey.
