I am a woman of african origin, at the time of my pregnancy, I was studying in Melbourne. I had my daughter in 2006. John looked after me through the pregnancy. I found him to be very encouraging (this was my first child). I felt very well looked after. I recommend to anyone.

I was so fortunate to have John look after me during a very difficult pregnancy. You could not find a more decent, caring and supportive doctor. My experience has been that while its easy to help someone when things are easy it is only when things are tough that you really find out the mettle of someone. I could not recommend him more.

I have been blessed to have had John deliver 2 of my beautiful children and I couldn't have been happier. A very gentle, calm and genuinely caring man who helped me immensely throughout my pregnancies and someone who I couldn't recommend highly enough. Was always able to get an appointment which suited me and often I was ringing up his clinic to ask questions which they were more than happy to help out with straight away. 10/10!

I had a miscarriage very early into my pregnancy and although I hadn't even met Dr Negri he canceled his plans and I saw him within the hour. He always fits you into his schedule especially if you have any concerns he is fantastic. I just had a baby boy eight months ago which he delivered and already pregnant again and he will be the only one I see. He always tells you the truth and I am fine with that I am now about to have my third cesarean and although there is more risks the more honest he is the happier I am.

Horrifying to say the most. While I appreciate very much the other comments here but my experience with him and my wife, zero out of a hundred will simply insult those whom have this score simply because I could not have a worse person to deliver my wife's baby.
The decision to take Mr. Negri (I just cannot call him a doctor) after recommendation by a leading IVF specialist. My wife became naturally pregnant after many years attempting with IVF which had failed several years and our age is has passed the forty mark.
After the first consultation, not one congratulations on the pregnancy but sort of straight to the facts and the odds. He simply rallied out several possibilities that can go wrong with the pregnancy. The ultrasonic scan operator said that the pregnancy is simply a "textbook" example as to how things should be and then he pours icy cold water over the experience with more facts and odd as to how our baby will survive.
On numerous occasions he had directly asked us if we wanted to ABORT the child. How can anyone ask this question when not all the facts are on the table especially especially when this baby is an absolute miracle.
When we decided to tell Mr Negri directly about how we felt (at this time my wife was in tears in his office) he decided to stop the appointment and cancel any future appointments with him telling us to look for another obstetrician.
We then went to another obstetrician (LK) whom was absolutely fabulous. My daughter could not be more perfect and Mr. Negri could not be more wrong.
My apologies for this review however this was our experience in all honesty. I am happy to stand in court to verify my experience.

John was excellent for me through the pregnancy of my third child, who was born 11 Feb 2009. I used him third time only as I was in a different area for the first two. He was helpful, friendly, understanding and took the time to see where I was coming from. He just missed my delivery (very fast baby!!!), but did everything very well with all my follow up. His staff were also very helpful. I often had to call through requesting info, as I was very ill through most of my pregnancy. Thanks for everything!!!

Very professional & tentative to my needs & also the babies. I've had two natural deliveries with John & I can't rate him high enough. Takes the time to answer all questions and is through with his examinations. Manner during delivery is calm & clear but efficient. Follow up with daily visits to hospital to check on your recovery.

John was my obstetrician for the birth of my daughter in Jan 06 and I was rapt. I must admit my first impressions of the receptionist & Dr Negri were not great but as time went on and we were able to build a rapport, I was very happy with John's manner, thoroughness and care. Definitely going back to him for baby No. 2.

Dr Negri was also my OB in 2008 and I just wanted to say that I chose him because his receptionist was so nice and understanding when I was ringing around trying to find an OB from work when I was only 6 weeks pregnant and didnt want anyone to over hear my conversation. He now has two receptionists and both girls were a great help to me through my first pregnancy.

John was my obstetrician for both of my children and would recommend him to anyone, he has a great bedside manner, dry sence of humor but very professional in every way.

i would totally agree with that, he is fantastic, had both my babies with John. He now has a new receptionist and has moved to freemasons.
