Which Maternity Care Option Is Right for You?

Which Maternity Care Option Is Right for You?
Most women are entitled to comprehensive maternity care at no cost as a public patient.
As a semi-private patient, you will be reviewed by a Consultant or Specialist Registrar during your clinic visits.
As a private patient, you select your own Consultant, who will see you personally for all appointments in their private consulting rooms.
Where Would You Like to Receive Your Maternity Care?
Hospital-based antenatal care is provided at the Holles Outpatient Clinic at The National Maternity Hospital.
Community clinics are available to eligible women and may be offered as part of your antenatal care pathway.
Which Community-Based Care Option Would You Prefer?
Antenatal care is provided by midwives in community clinics after your hospital booking visit.
Antenatal care is provided in community clinics with consultant oversight as required.
What Type of Maternity Care Would You Prefer?
Care led by a midwife throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postnatal journey.
Care supported by a specialist doctor alongside your maternity care team.
I’m happy to discuss both options.
Where possible and medically appropriate, we will try to accommodate your preference.
