I came to this group after another obst told me that he would be unavailable for the birth of my child as he had holidays booked during that time.
I told this to the doctor at this place when I first attended. I admit I didn't read the finer details of this place before engaging their services.
When it came close to my due date I found out that my doctor had annual leave booked starting on my due date.
This clinic assigns you one obst but you meet the others as well. How it works is these doctors have a roster system. I thought that if my doctor couldn't attend then I would get one of the others but in actual fact the have shifts so if my doctor is on wed morning and I go into labour in the afternoon then I get whoever is rostered on that shift from the group of 4 obs.There was one doctor in the group who's views clashed with mine and we didn't hit it off. I made it very clear that I did not want this doctor. But was told they couldn't do anything about it if I went in to labour during her shift. Just my luck I went in to labour on my due date and guess who was rostered on?!!!!!
I was very stressed leading up to the birth in case I had her. I am disapointed that my ob had her holidays booked when I was due and never told me.
In the end the other doctor did a good ob but for the money it cost me and the fact I told them initially that I was going to them because the other ob I had seen was not available. when I was due. If you want a particular ob look elsewhere otherwise this group is ok.
