As part of your care with Dr Lisa Begg, Dr Maryam Ebrahimi and Dr Karen Williamson you will have support from our practice midwives Mandy, Nicola and Peta.

Throughout your pregnancy you will have the opportunity to meet with the midwives several times to discuss a variety of topics including your birth preferences, maternal mental health and antenatal education.

Available to answer any questions or concerns you may have during clinic hours, Mandy, Nicola and Peta offer a personalised care approach in collaboration with the doctors to ensure your safety and enhance your pregnancy experience. The midwives are also available to perform CTG monitoring, administer Anti D and perform blood tests.

We recognise that the postnatal period can be an exciting but challenging time for families therefore after you have gone home from the hospital Mandy, Nicola or Peta will call you to discuss any concerns you may have for you or your baby. They can then support you and make appropriate referrals in consultation with your obstetrician.

Our midwives have a wealth of skills, knowledge and experience.
