Maternity appointments and specialist obstetrician referrals

Our Maternal and Neonatal Service provides a comprehensive range of health services to women with low to moderate complexity pregnancies.

Public patients can choose to access maternity services at Rockingham General Hospital as a public patient through shared care arrangements with community GPs, GP obstetricians and midwives.
