Pregnancy and Antenatal Care-Combined Care Scheme

We offer our patients the option of participation in the Combined Ante-Natal Care Scheme- where your obstetrician and ourselves here in the practice would see you for alternate visits for you throughout your pregnancy. 

These visits are free for all women once you sign up at your initial visit.

We like to see women early in their pregnancy to organise hospital follow up and identify any potential medical issues that need managing early in the pregnancy.

All routine visits and visits relating to pregnancy complications are covered in this scheme.

Other visits for medical matters unrelated to the pregnancy would incur normal charges.
