Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology
The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology provides medical and midwifery services to our local community through Campbelltown and Camden Hospitals. The department has two full-time and two part-time staff specialist obstetricians and gynaecologists, as well as six VMOs who have ultimate responsibility to every patient who presents to the department for obstetrics and gynaecology care.
Women with general gynaecological conditions can be referred by their GPs to Campbelltown Hospital Gynaecology Clinic. The clinic is run by a specialist gynaecologist with training registrars. Simple procedures such as colposcopy, cervical polypectomy, IUCD insertion and removal and endometrial biopsy are performed in the clinic, while surgeries require general anaesthesia or hospital admission are performed in theatre. One of our staff specialists is also a clinical trainer for NSW Family Planning Association IUCD training program for GPs.
Obstetric services are provided by both doctors and midwives. Depending on risk factors, a pregnant woman may attend a high-risk antenatal clinic or a low-risk midwifery clinic. For low-risk pregnant women, the following models of care are provided: hospital midwifery care, case-load group midwifery care and GP shared care.
