This review is for Dr Brendan Steele, Hampton VIC

We had no recommendations from friends for obstetricians at Cabrini (our chosen hospital) and we picked Dr Steele simply because he was listed at Cabrini, was relatively local to us and the very limited feedback we found online was positive.
Both my husband and I are towards the older end of the age range for first time parents and work in demanding, high stress jobs, and as a result we tend to be very picky and demanding ourselves, particularly for something as important as the birth of our first child.
However we had an amazing experience with Dr Steele and couldn't recommend him highly enough. Throughout our pregnancy he would patiently and kindly answer our (long!) list of questions at each appointment, reassuring us and never make us feel stupid. When it came to the birth, following a false alarm a few days earlier our labour started naturally but became quite complicated, ending in an emergency c section. Dr Steele was there every step of the way, around the clock, even for the false alarm. We both trusted him implicitly and couldn't have felt that we were in more professional or safer hands. We will definitely be going back to Dr Steele for any future children and will recommend him to all our friends and family.
