Women with pre‑existing medical conditions such as diabetes mellitus, chronic hypertension or lupus, or with genetic conditions like cystic fibrosis, may face additional challenges during pregnancy.
Our clinicians are among the most experienced and highly trained in managing these more complex situations. We work closely with you to tailor a safe, thoughtful plan for your pregnancy, supporting both your health and your baby’s wellbeing every step of the way.
If your pregnancy is complicated by placental insufficiency- perhaps shown by high blood pressure in pregnancy or your baby measuring small for gestational age- we are a trusted centre for close monitoring and ongoing surveillance.
As advisors to obstetricians in several major tertiary hospitals, we are well placed to provide tailored, evidence‑based recommendations about how best to manage your pregnancy. We work in partnership with you and your obstetrician to support the safest possible plan for you and your baby.
If you have sadly experienced an adverse outcome in a previous pregnancy, there may be a varying risk of a similar complication occurring again.
With extensive experience caring for women with conditions such as severe pre‑eclampsia, very preterm birth, stillbirth and recurrent miscarriage- and leading cutting‑edge research in this area- our team is well‑placed to help. We work with you to understand your history, assess your individual risks, and create a tailored management plan aimed at optimising outcomes in your current pregnancy and any future pregnancies, while offering compassionate support along the way.
Our highly skilled sonographers use a meticulous, detail‑focused approach to screen for structural differences in your baby, helping to maximise the chance of early and accurate diagnosis.
If an abnormality is found, we understand how confronting and emotional this can be. The management of the pregnancy may change, and input from a multidisciplinary team- such as neonatologists, paediatric surgeons, geneticists and other specialists may be needed.
Our team has extensive experience caring for families in this situation and strong working relationships with all major tertiary hospitals in the city. This allows us to coordinate timely referrals and collaborative care, helping to ease some of the practical burden and support you and your family through every step of the process.
Our Maternal–Fetal Medicine consultations are carefully tailored to your individual needs and circumstances. Using the latest technology, including advanced ultrasound and imaging, we aim to provide clear, accurate diagnoses and create personalised care plans that support both your health and your baby’s wellbeing.
Our multidisciplinary team works closely with your obstetrician and other healthcare providers to ensure smooth communication and truly coordinated care. We’re committed to offering a warm, supportive environment where you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing your concerns and receiving the expert, respectful care you deserve.
If you wish to make a booking with one of our specialists or allied health team, please get in touch with our friendly support staff.
We understand the need for women-led care and have an easy referral system to other health care professionals who provide a range of services specialised to your individual needs.
