Why have your baby at a private hospital?

There are a number of reasons to consider private hospital care

Seeing the same obstetrician/midwives during your pregnancy checkups. The importance of antenatal care is well known – and associated with positive outcomes for the mother and child and increases the likelihood of receiving effective health interventions. It is particularly effective when started in the first trimester (before 14 weeks gestation), which often leads to better maternal health in pregnancy, fewer interventions in late pregnancy and positive health outcomes for the child (AIHW 2018; DoH 2018).

Whilst public hospitals offer antenatal support, the public health system can’t guarantee you’ll see the same midwives or obstetricians each time you visit.

Giving birth in a private hospital means you can choose your obstetrician, who is accredited to work at Hurstville Maternity. If you haven’t booked your obstetrician already, please refer to our Obstetrician team.

Choosing your paediatrician: Please be aware that all babies delivered at Hurstville Private are automatically under the care of a Paediatrician. A paediatrician will be allocated to you after your baby is born, or you can request one. All Paediatrician’s have their own billing rights. Paediatrician fees are in addition to hospital fees (much like your Obstetrician fees), we suggest that you discuss this fee with the paediatrician. If you would like a list of our Paediatrician’s accredited to work here at Hurstville Private, please review our Paediatrician team members here.
