Practice Philosophy

The Greenslopes Obstetrics & Gynaecology model of care ensures the highest chance of a safe outcome for you and your baby, and provides continuous care with one specialist obstetrician.

GOG’s independent specialists work closely with Greenslopes Private Hospital along with a network of hospital midwives, anaesthetists, paediatricians, other medical specialists, and postnatal midwives to provide this model of care.

Furthermore, GOG works closely with the hospital to monitor outcomes through regular perinatal morbidity meetings and practice auditing.

GOG does not offer any collaborative care models with independent midwives as the group’s independent doctors believe this is a model of care that cannot provide the requisite level of safety.

However, we do provide access to independent allied health professionals who practise from our rooms, including women’s health physiotherapists, a diabetic educator, dieticians and psychologists to provide our uniquely comprehensive model of care.

While our independent specialists respect any patient’s choice to pursue a particular therapy, GOG does not provide access to alternative therapies, such as chiropractors or naturopaths. These are unregulated therapies not supported by evidence and in some cases may worsen certain conditions.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel welcome to contact us.
