In an emergency, the telephone number of Women’s Assessment Unit is 09 631 0784. You may go to Women’s Assessment Unit at any time if there is an emergency i.e. an accident, bleeding, rupture of membranes or onset of labour, prior to term. They will then get hold of me.

Ideally, you go into the Labour and Birthing Unit when your contractions are 5 minutes or less apart, lasting 40 seconds and are painful.
If there is any problem at night, ring me on my mobile 0274 733 974 , or during daytime hours at the office 09 623 7509.
Locum Cover
Obstetricians need time off, annual leave or conference leave. There will be periods of time off when specialist cover is needed.
If I am away for an extended period, every attempt will be made to introduce you to the covering specialist should it be likely that you may deliver. I generally take leave so that it does not coincide with due dates of booked patients. However, delivery time is unpredictable. Specialist obstetric care is guaranteed in the event of me not being able to be present.
