The midwives will advise you of the most appropriate course of action.

For your antenatal care, we will see you once every 4 weeks up to 32 weeks, fortnightly until 36 weeks and weekly until the delivery of your baby.

At every appointment, we will check on the health of baby and mother and perform an ultrasound (at no additional cost).

This is the best time to ask any questions and share any concerns you may have. If you have any concerns in between visits, do call the reception staff to schedule an appointment.

After the delivery of your baby, you'll come for a postnatal visit, 6 weeks after your baby is born. We would love to see how you and your baby are going. We can further discuss contraception plans and cervical screening tests at this appointment as well.

In the unlikely event that we are unable to attend to your delivery due to unforseen circumstances, rest assured you will be looked after by another specialist obstetrician who practices with the same values and high standards of care that we adhere to.
