One consultant, from booking to delivery

Antenatal care is built around a single consultant who follows your pregnancy through to delivery, rather than a rotating team, so the person examining you at each visit already knows your history. Routine scans are carried out in the same clinic, keeping antenatal checks to a single visit wherever possible.

Delivery takes place in a dedicated obstetric theatre kept separate from general surgical lists, and neonatal support is present at the delivery when the baby's condition calls for it. Private rooms are available for the admission, and the maternity desk is reachable at any hour for advice or if labour begins.
