My Team

If you have come to see me because you are pregnant, we will make your initial antenatal consultation with me. We will then work together to look after your antenatal care with a network of doctors and hospital staff who will use their combined expertise, knowledge and experience to minimise risks to you and your baby.

We recommend you & your family be registered with Medicare Safety Net.  If registered, once you & your family reach the relevant Safety Net threshold, you may be eligible to be paid the Medicare benefit and 80% of the out of pocket costs or the benefit cap for eligible out of hospital Medicare Benefit Schedule services for the rest of the calendar year.

We also recommend you contact Calvary John James Hospital Maternity Services on 02 6281 8730 to arrange attendance at Birth & Parenting/Antenatal Classes that are integrated with tours of the service, Anaesthetic Workshops that address pain relief in childbirth & Breast Feeding Workshops. You can access the hospital’s maternity patient information.

There is also general online information on healthy eating when you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, foods to avoid when pregnant, exercise during pregnancy , physiotherapy, emotional health during pregnancy and of new parents, breastfeeding, immunisation & cord blood banking. The Royal Australasian College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists also provides online access to Patient Information Pamphlets, useful resources and women’s health news.

If we determine you require a gynaecological procedure after your initial consultation with me, I will arrange for you to be admitted to Calvary John James Hospital using an online admission process & you can also download the patient information handbook.
