Antenatal care is recommended to prevent potential problems during pregnancy. Your antenatal care doctor checks the health of the woman and baby to determine if extra care is needed. Antenatal care can include screening for congenital conditions and obstetric ultrasounds when needed. Your antenatal care doctor is also there to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
What is Antenatal Shared Care ?
Multiple health professionals can be involved in pregnancy care – this is called antenatal shared care. Often, antenatal shared care is between a trained GP and a hospital. Antenatal shared care gives women flexibility and more continuous care as it allows them to speak to an antenatal GP close by.
Which GP Can Provide Antenatal Shared Care ?
GPs that are part of antenatal shared care programs undergo further training with hospitals. At Hyde Park Medical Centre, our Antenatal GPs are Dr Timothy Diep, Dr Joseph Santos, Dr Ai Nhi Bui, and Dr Jun Zhang.
