At Sanctuary, Dr Tammy Goldberg and Dr Sophie Vavladelis are accredited in providing Antenatal Shared Care for women proposing to have their babies at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Canterbury Hospital, and Bankstown Hospital.
Antenatal Shared Care means that during the course of your pregnancy you visit the hospital on a couple of occasions for specifically nominated checks and screens while your General Practitioner does the remainder of the monitoring. Together the hospital and your General Practitioner “share your care”. The protocol that is followed is the same regardless of which antenatal care option you choose. Comprehensive communication between our Doctors and the hospital also ensures continuity of care.
It is often more convenient to enrol in Antenatal Shared Care as it may reduce travelling time, waiting time at hospital and reduce time away from work and family.
At Sanctuary the initial appointment to discuss your pregnancy requires a 30 minute consultation.
Please contact reception on 95060400 if you have any other questions about Antenatal Shared Care.
