To break down this specialty, obstetrics focuses on pregnancy, labour, childbirth and the postpartum period – or rather, caring for and maintaining a woman’s overall health during maternity. Gynaecology, on the other hand, focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and care of a women’s reproductive system from puberty through to adulthood. This covers examinations and treatment of issues in the vagina, uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and breasts.

At Edge Day Hospital, we have three experienced and approachable obstetrician-gynaecologists, (also known as an OB-GYN). All three of these experts in our surgical team are more than capable and happy to support you in your medical journey.
