What are the advantages to private obstetrics care?

Choosing to go private gives you better continuity of care throughout your pregnancy. It allows you to get to know your obstetrician and this builds trust and confidence. It allows you to have a longer stay in hospital after your baby is born so that you can have support as you learn how to care for your baby. It means you are choosing to have a skilled and experienced doctor deliver your baby. Public clinics can be very busy and usually when you choose private care your waiting times will be shorter.
