Midwife & GP Pregnancy Care With Home Visits

With a new family focussed service, Grow Medical is pleased to launch our General Practice based Midwifery antenatal care & postnatal home visits. Traditionally, midwives have been responsible for pregnancy care in the hospital system, working alongside Obstetricians to provide antenatal clinic visits, care during your confinement, and postnatal care either in the clinic or at home.

At Grow Medical, we believe the best place to grow your baby is in your local community; it really does take village to grow a child. Australia's hospital based care is second to none, and is the safest place to deliver your baby. However, the sooner you are home, feeling supported to breast feed and start your journey getting to know the newest member of your family, the better.

That's why we would like you to develop a trusting relationship with our midwife and doctors during your pregnancy. For a limited time (until 1 September 2017), any woman who registers for antenatal care at Grow Medical Sherwood will receive two complementary postnatal home visits with our midwife Alison. She can discuss infant settling, breastfeeding advice, adjustments to parenting or any other aspects of your postnatal care. By having a midwife working as part of Grow Medical, you can be assured of a consistent team approach to caring for your growing family.

As your baby grows, you can also take advantage of our drop-in clinic for simple concerns, baby weights and measures. And we have plenty more plans for the future to help you feel the best you can during these precious days, weeks, months and years.

Call us on 31542355 to book your antenatal visit.
